50 book challenge dept.:
I read a book today, "the first 20 million is the toughest." If it was written in 1996,
published 97, it has a very contemporary feel, as though the author was a few years ahead of his time. Turns out the guy useta write for wired. This book could have inspired startup dot com, the screenplay. 5 plucky coders take on the big company,
gain and lose millions, and unleash their interoperable operating system into the public domain. An afterword explains that this really isn't about Microsoft. No, really.
