- ghaff 13y agoStill one of the best books out there about getting a product out the door. (Showstopper--about the development of Windows NT--is another.) Of course, I may be biased :-) I worked at Data General for about 13 years. I started a few years after the events of the book but knew many of the people portrayed in it, including Tom West.
- edanm 13y agoHaven't read it (still on my shelf), but have you had a chance to read Dreaming in Code? That's the book I would describe as "the best book about getting a product out the door", or not, in this particular case.
- ghaff 13y agoI haven't. From the description I'm guessing I would like it. Onto the wishlist :-) Thanks.
