I was listening to TWiT Windows Weekly on the drive this morning and Mary Jo Foley declared a book to be the best book about Microsoft company history around. I was intrigued.
Showstopper is by G. Pascal Zachary. It tells the story of how a team developed Windows NT, the original version of what would become Windows XP/Vista/7/8.
I’ve just bought it and sent it to my iPad. I’m in the middle of reading another book at the moment. This one will be next on my reading list.
