Das Buch ist eine Freude. Unglaublich präzise recherchierte Geschichte […] spannend, voller bizarrer Anekdoten und erstaunlicher Einblicke in die Frühzeit dieser Branche. Allein wegen der unglaublichen Biographie von Jack Tramiel lohnt es sich […] auch der Abstieg Commodores wird liebevoll aber unerbittlich nachgezeichnet.— Spiegel.de

Die Geschichte des Computer-Pioniers Commodore — erzählt von den Insidern, die C64, Amiga und andere Hardware-Meilensteine schufen: Volkscomputer ist eine abenteuerliche Reise in die Zeit, als die Großen der Branche ihre ersten Schritte wagen und mit Commodore-Gründer Jack Tramiel und seinen Ingenieuren die Waffen kreuzen. Partner und Gegner sind der junge Bill Gates, der Ende der 70er-Jahre MS BASIC vermarktet, Apple-Visionär Steve Jobs, Ataris Nolan Bushnell und andere Macher, auf dem Weg ins 21. Jahrhundert.

Im Ringen mit IBM, Texas Instruments und Apple, Microsoft und Atari wird Commodore zum Marktführer an der Schnittstelle zwischen PC- und Videospiel-Sektor. In Volkscomputer sprechen die Erfinder von PET, VC-20 und Amiga, geniale Ingenieure und Tüftler, deren Technik nicht nur in eigenen Geräten steckt, sondern auch im Atari VCS und im Apple II, dem ersten Grafik- und Spiel-PC. Später übernimmt Nintendo die Chips von Chuck Peddle & Co.

Der Commodore-Historiker Boris Kretzinger und Winnie Forster erweiterten das Standardwerk von Brian Bagnall um Personen-, Firmen- und Spiele-Index, technische Tabellen sowie einer Foto-Galerie der Commodore-Geräte — von den späten 60er-Jahren bis zum Ende in den 90er-Jahren.

There's so much more than walking packed into this book.
Format: Kindle
Investing is more my husband's purview, but I loved Gordon Bernhardt's tale of his walk and life stories, and that made reading the parts about investing actually enjoyable for me. The author's arduous journey on the Camino was fascinating and I couldn't wait for his next experience. He did an outstanding job of weaving together his walk, his investment philosophies, and the life lessons he learned along the way.

Great introduction to Linux kernel development
Format: Kindle
This is a great book for those wanting to get into Linux kernel development. It has a good flow to the writing and doesn't try and bury you with too much deep knowledge as a beginner (just enough to give you the basics of the concepts being discussed). if you purchase this book there is a second book with more depth on programming provided free (on the books website github). I enjoyed this book so much I've purchased the second book for my kindle reader to support the author. I've also purchased Kaiwan's book on Linux kernel debugging which is also an excellent read; giving you a good introduction to all the different methods/tools that can be used to help you debug those stubborn issues you'll inevitably encounter working as a kernel developer. I can't wait to read the next edition of this book coming out in January; revised for the 6.x kernel. FYI, I've read this book and worked through all the examples on the latest Linux stable kernel (as of this review 6.4.x/6.5.x-rcX). You won't regret getting this book if you want to start down the path of being a Linux kernel developer! I'd love to see a book from Kaiwan on developing module/drivers using Rust (with it's support now included in Linux kernel since 6.2). :-)

Excellent book with information presented in great depth
Format: Paperback
I would highly recommend this book to people interested in learning the internal working of the Linux kernel and writing kernel level code like device drivers. Everything is covered in great detail and where impractical many resources are provided to further explore the topic. Definitely a must read!
