One of the more interesting bits (as one of the backers, staring at my copy on the shelf now), is that the author asked for pictures of the book once you got it, and just the ones he's been comfortable posting in the updates are amazing. People's whole collection of antique computer history with the book open to the page about it, or propped up on a typewriter, etc. I sent one of my Model M, Unicomp, Thinkpad portable keyboard, Ergodox and recent dactyl manuform with the book.
- rvba 3y agoHow is the quality of the actual writing inside the book? I suspect high - looking at the supplementary text, but everyone seems to judge this book by its cover
- wcunning 3y agoPretty high, though I have only been skimming. It's kind of a coffee table book for me, since the part I really care about (modern keyboard cambrian explosion) is very short and way at the very end. I did read the entire small booklet "The Day Return Became Enter" and that was wonderful.
