Definitely. His book "Accidental Empires" (subtitled "How the Boys of Silicon Valley Make Their Millions, Battle Foreign Competition, and Still Can't Get a Date") is also an incredibly fun read, and a glimpse into a lost era. If anyone likes the true story of the guy sneaking into vintage Apple to develop Graphing Calculator out of pure passion, you'll love Accidental Empires.

(Just realized I've never read the 1996 update/revision. Adding it to the top of my list.)
