Dear SIGCIS!
My first book, THE APPLE II AGE: HOW THE COMPUTER BECAME PERSONAL officially drops May 8 (though lots of folks have already gotten their pre-orders!).
My official *book launch* is happening Thursday, May 11 at the Internet Archive in San Francisco. If you're local to the area, please stop by! I'll be doing a short talk and reading, followed by conversation with Finn Brunton (UC-Davis), and then a signing. Registration here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/book-talk-the-apple-ii-age-tickets-622292011157
