Customer comments on this selection.
 I liked it and I lived through that period
Having started programming in 1979, I remember most of the book. The author has done an excellent job in eliciting information from the people being interviewed. In some cases they were allowed to wander a bit but it was extremely interesting what their thoughts were. I would imagine the editing process has cut out a lot of other information. Maybe publish that as an aside to this book. Maybe on the web or something. I'm sure it will bring a deeper sense of what they were going through.
I really enjoyed the book and have learned several lessons from the people in the book. I believe any entrepreneur in tech should read this. The lessons are invaluable and most likely you are an naive as many of them were.
I highly recommend this book. Its an excellent read.

 32 interviews with technology entrepreneurs
32 intervies wiht some of the biggest names in technology in history. anyone in this industry should find some interviews worth reading and re-reading. i've found the following interviews realy interesting; Sabeer Bhatia (hotmail.com) and his advice on business plans. Stephen Kaufer (TripAdvisor.com) experience on building the largest online travel community in the world. James Hong (HotOrNot.com) - a lot of wisdom from a young entrepreneur.
worth reading indeed - just take some time ... it's a thick book
Attention all tech entrepreneurs!
If you want to be a millionaire, who do you ask how to do it? You ask millionaires how they did it. If you want to start a tech company, what do you do? You read this book. Simply the best.
 Good for the area it covers.
This is a good book on what it took for 32 entrepreneurs to become successful in the technology field. However it is focused only on the technology field. If that is your area of interest this would be a great book for you to read. But if your area of interest is startups in another field you would be disappointed by this book. Great for the area it covers, and it does give many insights that could be adapted to other fields, but for me it was too narrow a view of entrepreneurship.
Great readings
Great book! Very fun stories to read, during which you can't stop wishing you were one of those lucky guys :)
