I read 3/4 of "The Soul of a new Machine" and thought it was good, but I sort of fizzled out. What makes you recommend it so highly (trying to understand if I should go back)
I'm very into the idea of "pinball" talked about in the book. I have always wanted to play pinball in my career but never got the chance -- that's why I read it over and over trying to live the experience.

I liked those as well (I assume you meant "Show-Stopper!" about windows NT) and also remember "Dreaming in code" as a good one in the same-ish genre.
