Ha ha, yes, seriously. I have a couple of new copies of the book, "Overdrive:
Bill Gates and the Race to Control Cyberspace" by James Wallace. Paperback,
320 pages, 1997. This was the sequel to "Hard Drive" and is the story of
Microsoft's response to Netscape's challenge to control the web browser
market. A pretty good read, as well as the original book. Anyway, just $5
gets you a copy shipped!
Also, if anyone is interested, I've got one more thing to hock:
A sealed VHS video, "Apple's Operating System Strategy, March 1997" and a
sealed CD, "The 1997 Apple MacAdvocate CD-ROM." This set is an excellent
snap-shot of the state of Apple in Mid-1997, when Steve Jobs returned. The
tape is just 15 minutes, but is great entertainment, with an explanation of
the "future" of the Mac OS, when it incorporates the NeXT OS. Remember the
blue box? A great feature is a presentation by Steve Jobs showing how easy it
is to create a simple app in NeXTSTEP. The CD has all kinds of information on
it, including the following folders: Read Me First!, Presentations, Goodies,
Comments?, Free Stuff!, Welcome from Guy!, Apple Products, MacOS, Product
Info, System 7.6 Demos, AppleFacts, and all of these Commercials:
