BOOK REVIEW: Revolution in the valley - The insanely great story about how the Mac was made - Page 3

Get this book if you are a Mac geek. Get it anyway if you are just a computer user because this story is one that affects most of our lives these days. Every time you touch a mouse and it opens a window you need to thank Steve Jobs and his Apple team for making it all a reality for computer users everywhere. There is no doubt that someone would have done it sooner or later and there is no doubt that others helped to develop the pieces and parts like the actual mouse concept. But the original Apple team are the ones that put it all together as it is today in a slick, user-friendly system for non-technical users. A very large contribution to society and the world without a doubt.

One final note: The book is very high quality and filled with original photographs, sketches, notes magazine covers and artifacts that just add the finishing touch to an already great piece of work.

By the way, if you haven't seen it yet, check out Steve Jobs keynote address on the Apple web site now. You'll understand why we all think Apple, the Mac, and Steve Jobs are so damn cool in '05... Click Here
