Book description:

Akin to the car buff's collector book, this beautifully illustrated chronological look at the PC from the 1970's to today, is sure to spark nostalgia in every PC enthusiast's heart. Digital Retro: The Evolution and Design of the Personal Computer is a definitive guide that tells the story of the classic home computers that paved the way for the PCs we use today. It uniquely combines the technological and design evolution of the modern PC with stories of the masterminds behind the machines--inventors, programmers, designers, and businessmen. It even includes specially commissioned photography of actual machines from the personal collections of computer enthusiasts and historians.
