A good book on that era, is Stan Veits "History of the personal computer".
One
of the reasons I like it, is Stan was one of the first computer shop owners in
New York city, at the time Altairs were coming out. He describes many of the
different machines of the time in this book, and his experiences with them (fun
reading for someone interested in vintage computers). If you want a copy, let
me know and I'll e-mail you the bookstore's website.
They've been trying to sell those books for $3 each on ebay. They had about
a thousand in think ;)
And yes, i bought a copy.

PS: With Doug gone, i wonder who will complain that I gave away something
they planned to bid on at ebay...
