Average Customer Rating: 3.8 (5 reviews)
Rating: 3
Summary: Only good if you know nothing about software
Comment: I don't think you could be very successful running a computer business if you need this book. Its way too basic.
Rating: 3
Summary: Great book, but a bit of a lost-leader
Comment: I thought this was a good reference for someone interested in starting a software company, but with no previous background. It is written in a simple style, and touches on everything. I had found much of the information in other places, but it is very good to have it all bound together in one place.
I have one, major complaint. Every other page of the book, it seems, refers to forms, contact information, or further topical information that is on the companion CD. The CD does NOT come with the book, however. If you call the number listed on the back page, you will find that it is available for $29.95.
It is frustrating to be constantly reminded in the text that you do not have much of the available information in hand, but could if you spend another $30. It's a nice piece of marketing by the author, I guess, but it has damaged his credibility with me. I won't purchase other books by him in the future.
Rating: 5
Summary: Very useful
Comment: After 15 years doing software development for others, I had been thinking about going out on my own, and this book was exactly what I needed to get started. One of the reasons I particularly liked it was that it isn't too theoretical. The author gives specific instructions and ideas on how to actually set up your business, turn your software into an actual products, and--most importantly--get your software sold. If you're starting a software business, or just thinking or dreaming about it, I would definitely get this book.
