    Default Revolution in The Valley

    Yet another book out on the Mac. Seems like an engaging read. I think penmanila will be adding this to his Christmas wishlist.

    From oreilly.com:
    Revolution in The Valley:
    The Insanely Great Story of How the Mac Was Made


    Revolution in the Valley traces the development of the Macintosh computer from its inception as an underground skunkworks project in 1979 to its triumphant introduction in 1984 and beyond. In this vivid first-hand account, author and key Macintosh developer Andy Hertzfeld reveals exactly what it was like to be a key player in one of the most important technical achievements in modern history.


    Picked it up from an interesting article from wired.com.

    Just picked one up and I must say it's a great read on the Mac's beginnings. Easy to read, it has a certain warmth to it. Lots of photos that bring anecdotes to life. An important addition to any true Mac fan's library.
