Quite an interesting book when it comes to understanding how one of the oldest and respected companies in the technology community was born out of a garage. But I felt the book has lived its life. For most part, when you think of when HP achieved the feats David Packard has claimed you will definitely find the company way ahead of its time. But when you look at it 12 years later, I do not think you will find anything strongly appealing.
A recommended book if you enjoy reading a history book. From the current context you may not find it very appealing.
