Book summary


This book tells the story of the author's wild ride in the computer business during the late 1980s. During that time, he assembled a brilliant but fractious team of engineers, software designers, and investors to pioneer the emerging market of hand-held computers, operated with a pen instead of a keyboard. Throughout the text, he careens from crisis to crisis without ever losing passion for his revolutionary idea.
