    Code Nation explores the rise of software development as a social, cultural, and technical phenomenon in American history. The movement germinated in government and university labs during the 1950s, gained momentum through corporate and counterculture experiments in the 1960s and 1970s, and became a broad-based computer literacy movement in the 1980s. As personal computing came to the fore, learning to program was transformed by a groundswell of popular enthusiasm, exciting new platforms, and an array of commercial practices that have been further amplified by distributed computing and the Internet. The resulting society can be depicted as a “Code Nation”—a globally- connected world that is saturated with computer technology and enchanted by software and its creation. Code Nation is a new history of personal computing that emphasizes the technical and business challenges that software developers faced when building applications for CP/M, MS-DOS, UNIX, Microsoft Windows, the Apple Macintosh, and other emerging platforms. It is a popular history of computing that explores the experiences of novice computer users, tinkerers, hackers, and power users, as well as the ideals and aspirations of leading computer scientists, engineers, educators, and entrepreneurs. Computer book and magazine publishers also played important, if overlooked, roles in the diffusion of new technical skills, and this book highlights their creative work and influence. Code Nation offers a “behind-the-scenes” look at application and operating-system programming practices, the diversity of historic computer languages, the rise of user communities, early attempts to market PC software, and the origins of “enterprise” computing systems. Code samples and over 80 historic photographs support the text.

  • The Apple Lisa Handbook
    THE APPLE LISA HANDBOOK compiled by Michael J Posner copyright 1991, 2005 © all rights reserved .reprinted materials copyrighted by the original owner INTRODUCTION In the beginning there was this: “c:\”, and it was hard. But there was an answer, and it came from.....Xerox, yes Xerox. And one day Steve Jobs came to Xerox and said, “This is great”. So Steve went back to Apple and said, let there be Lisa (allegedly his young daughter out of wedlock). And Apple labored for three years and then (without Steve, who was now raising a pirate flag over at the Macintosh Group) there was Lisa. And Lisa was cool, like no other computer ever made, before or since. But Apple lost heart and Lisa was discontinued. This hurt many people (especially those with vision and a wallet $10,000 lighter). But Lisa lives for those dedicated users. This book is dedicated to them. My wife asked me why I wrote this book. She also asked me why I bought a Lisa. Afterall, it was nine years old, weighed over 50 pounds and besides, what was wrong with my 386 PC clone. I told her how I fell in love with the first Lisa I saw 8 years ago, and how I always wanted. After successions of Macs (512, 512Ke, Plus, 2 SEs, a II, and an SI) and then a variety of IBM clones (in addition to my profession as an attorney, I administer an eighteen node pc network so I needed a pc at home to stay up on the latest pc software as well as to master the intricacies of DOS), I had all but given up on my dream of a Lisa when one day on America Online I had the opportunity to acquire a Lisa 2/10.
