This book is by Lewis Eggebrecht - a key technical architect of the original IBM PC hardware - who got sued by IBM (good story)

​

I discovered this fantastic story 5 years ago buried within pc magazines ..while studying the IBM PC XT circuit ( at that time posted it in facebook RetroComputers group)..

so seems IBM was very worried about industrial espionage relating to Hitachi and Mitsubishi probably due to reverse engineering with their other machines. The IBM PC technical architect that was started a company called "Bridge Technology," caugh allegedly trying to sell IBM PC expansion-board designs to some other companies. He got sued so hard some articles say he had to sell his home. Also today isnt officially recognized as a member of IBM PC XT original team on IBM pages (probably because of this)..
