Stories Along the Way

Más información sobre el libro

Stories from the life of John Cullinane who founded Cullinane Corporation, the first successful software products company in the computer industry. Ironically, at the time, industry gurus said there was no future in software and that it could not be done. Others had tried and failed, predicting that he would, too. However, the great success of his company would prove to Wall Street and the computer industry that a great deal of money could be made from treating software as a product. Many software companies followed, and an industry was born. As the author says, "writing this was fun. The stories just flowed out. In my case, I was up to 160 in no time, and I think of more all the time, some crazy, some I cannot even tell. Then looking for pictures and finding some great ones I never saw before. I cut the book back to one hundred or so stories. I do not consider it an autobiography. Maybe, it's more like the "Canterbury Tales," although not as bawdy as one I read.
