我就是一个二把刀的英文水平,随便看两眼就找出一大堆错误,比如: Cash cow --> 现金奶牛 (应该翻译为“摇钱树”) Piss off --> 朝别人撒尿(应该翻译为“惹恼了别人”) Greek -> 希腊语 (应该翻译为“天书”) Rocket Science --> 火箭科技(应该翻译为“尖端科技”或“...
评分IT和软件项目经理 本书的成书时间是1994年,所以不会因微软后续发迹而产生偏见,也没有对后来各位微软大拿鼓吹。 作为一部报告文学,应该是相对客观的,描写了整个项目的众生相,每个出场人员都会从相貌、性格和经历介绍起,倒很像古典派的小说。 特别是作者还试图描述了一些...
评分从同事那儿借来的书,飞快地看完了。故事是不错,NT这个项目对微软的意义也不言而喻,这个项目的确可以说是微软历史上最重要的一个项目。我就有两点感想: 1. 微软还是很纵容卡特勒的,让他带自己队伍进公司,给他高人一等的地位,连盖茨在他面前都小心翼翼地,虽然项目一再de...
评分昨天收到了华章寄来的新书《观止:微软创建NT和未来的夺命狂奔》,其实这本已经算不上是新书了,15年前英文版已经上市,而在15年之后终于有机会看到中文版。本来对这样一本书我是没有多大兴趣的,我一直认为这是一本歌颂微软有多么伟大、微软是多么有远见的书,但是当我读完前...
评分为世人完整的重现了整个NT开发过程的方方面面,让大家对这样大型、复杂项目有了一个感性的认识,对项目、团队管理具有不小的启发作用。 感触: 一:经济刺激作用。不用看薪资待遇方面,最初加入NT团队的人,2年左右的时间通过持有的微软股票基本都成了百万富翁。 二:关键的高...

Showstopper! is a vivid account of the creation of Microsoft Windows NT, perhaps the most complex software project ever undertaken. It is also a portrait of David Cutler, NT's brilliant and, at times, brutally aggressive chief architect.
Cutler surely ranks as one of the most impressive software engineers the field has ever produced. After leading the team that created the VMS operating system for Digital's VAX computer line--an accomplishment that most would regard as a lifetime achievement--he went on to conceive and lead the grueling multi-year project that ultimately produced Windows NT. Both admired and feared by his team, Cutler would let nothing stand in the way of realizing his design and often clashed with his programmers, senior Microsoft management, and even Gates himself. Yet no matter how involved he became in managing his 100-programmer team, he continued to immerse himself in every technical detail of the project and write critical portions of the code himself.
Showstopper! is also a fascinating look at programmer and managerial culture behind the Microsoft facade. The portraits of the men and women who created NT not only reveal the brilliance of their work but the crushing stress and the dislocating effects that new wealth had on their lives. For some team members, the NT project ultimately destroyed their marriages, friendships, and virtually every human relationship outside of work. Showstopper! also reveals the uncertainties, false starts, and blind alleys that dogged the project as Microsoft repositioned NT from an improved OS/2 to something that would ultimately challenge both OS/2 and Unix for the title of the world's most powerful operating system.
