4.0 out of 5 stars A very in-depth reference book on hard to find PC info.
Reviewed in the United States on February 12, 1999
We used this book in a systems programming class I had at IIT in Chicago. It is not the end all "bible of PC", but it is certainly a very, very good book. Much of the information you will never use, but there will come a time when you will need that one sub-routine that no one else can find or understands, and you pull a code snippet out of this book, apply it to your code, and appear "god-like" to your colleagues. This has happend at least five times since I've owned both editions, and for that, the book has paid for itself. If you write code that goes beyond what the component libraries in your prgramming environment can provide, such as multimedia, games, or networking, it would be a wise investment to have this book in your arsenal.

One might argue that this book belongs to history, but again reading this teaches a lot about inners of computer and how to have a mindset for low level coding. It is a brilliant book for serious programmers.
