Amazon is offering George Cummings’ iFailed: The true, inside story of NeXT for Kindle for FREE ($9.99 value) for a limited time.

This is the true, inside story of NeXT from the viewpoint of a company executive who worked with Steve for five years. He spent almost 100 hours with him, most of it alone on the way to and from numerous Wall St. customer meetings.

The reader has to decide whether NeXT was fanciful extravagance or a basic mistiming of the marketplace. Was it bad business or just ahead of its time or a combination of all? This book relives this historical story of failure and sheds it in a dramatic new light.

What can’t be disputed is that it was one hell of a ride for those that were there and despite the business mistakes made, you’ll see that Steve was indeed insanely great at a lot of things and why he will always have a revered and significant place in history.
