Ep 197 - Open: How Compaq Ended IBM's PC Domination and Helped Invent Modern Computing, by Rod Canion

Something a little different this week: Andrew read a non-fiction book about the personal computer era, something he was reading about mostly because he was also watching AMC’s Halt and Catch Fire. There’s an interesting story at the heart of it, but delivered through the dry and often sterilized viewpoint of its one-time CEO it often seems lifeless.
