Will Wheaton is a fantastic narrator

Can't fault the memoir, really. I was interested to read about the early days of personal computing in particular, and I enjoy media set in that era immensely in general. The enthusiasm of everyone involved is palpable from the writing. I learned a lot about the timeline and the tech, as well as the origins of many of the companies who are now the absolute foundations of modern life. I tend to enjoy Gates' writing, this was no exception.

This book provided a background to the Bill Gates of today. It was interesting to hear about the innovation happening when he was going to school that allowed him to be in the right place at the right time.
