I just read it last week by chance and second the recommendation. It's not as good a book once the DEC era ends (I think Ceruzzi kind of loses interest in the modern era) but his coverage of mainframes and minicomputing era are really fantastic. I also highly recommend "DEC is dead! Long live DEC" as a good history of DEC's rise and fall.

As to the "Long live DEC!" I know of a company here in Austria which still deploys VMS machines (albeit not any more on Alpha but Itanium/HP Hardware iirc). Thanks for the book recommendation!
