Love this book. Reading this book's depiction of Jean-Louis Gassée was a major deflection point in my life.

Trying to emulate Gassée, my team and peers, knowing my true nature, thought I had gone insane.
I continued to read his opinions. http://www.mondaynote.com http://www.mondaynote.com Agree or disagree, I appreciate his heterodoxy, challenging my own assumptions and views.
Guy Kawasaki, not so much.

- tambourine_man 5y agoCould you expand? You got me curious. What characteristics from Gassée did you try to emulate in vain? What do you dislike about Kawasaki?
- specialist 5y agoPage 165, bullet point 11. Explaining would ruin Kawasaki's story. Rereading just now, I'm amused that was the only Gassée lesson I remembered. I like Kawasaki just fine. The followups I'd read didn't really land like Macintosh Way did. But I see now that he kept writing, all of which are rated highly. So I retract my judgement. YMMV.
