Since we're going into the history of Windows NT, VMS and Dave Cutler. I'd like to highlight this classic book on the history of all three of the above[1]

It follows the same line of narrative as The Soul of a New Machine

I freaking love Showstopper! Such a great book. It's probably the most information available on David Cutler anywhere.

The author also e-mailed me saying thanks when I tweeted him how much I liked the book, which I thought was super nice.
