I never cease to be amazed at the longevity and resonance the words those pioneers in PC software shared years ago continue to have. Even last year I was approached by a professor at Carnegie Mellon, Richard Pattis, who wanted to reissue the book and give it away at a conference. So we did it, with Microsoft's help. It was such fun to see it get in circulation again and make it available on amazon in small quantities. anyway, thanks for your enthusiasm for the book.
