Well, the stars finally aligned and I'm looking forward to a day off
next week.
I am wondering if anyone has any good book recommendations?
One of my favorites is The Idea Factory by Jon Gertner. A great look at innovations that were led by Bell Labs with a lot of colorful commentary.
Great book. You may enjoy, "Where Wizards Stay Up Late", about
the origins of the Internet.
Salus's "25 Years of Unix" is also excellent.
I recommended "Showstopper!" at work, and it was well-received.
