I read a 350 page book about NeXT and it took me about 100 page to realize it was from 1993 so it missed all recent events including a billion iPhones running its descendent.
In 1993 NeXT was a (financial) train wreck and Jobs was a loser in addition to the usual asshole. It’s amusing to read this in 2023. Not a very good book for me as it has really few tech details. It’s mostly about business.
