Soul is one of my favorite non technical book about technical products. I read it from back to back burning candles and am now reading it for a second time. As a software person building physical products always intrigue me. This, plus the 1984 Macintosh article showed me what was a great time back in the 70s/80s for computer engineers -- you could design the hardware with a very small team, and there were more diversity in computer manufacturers back then. Nevertheless, thanks to people like Ben Eater, I can still live that era with much more information and hand-holding. His 6502-computer series is a gold mine. I'm going to watch all of the videos and build one afterwards. In the back of my mind, sometimes I feel that building a customer computer, if possible to be a 32/64 bit one, is an essential skill to fight the dystopian future we are inevitably walking into.
