| | Structured Computer Organization (4th Edition) (Andrew S. Tanenbaum) |
| | Andrew Tanenbaum might be the best there is when it comes to the study of computers but, unless you're a "thorough geek," you'd wish other technical writers would step into the fore. | | | You'd be hard pressed to understand the main concepts most of the times because, like a forgetful professor, he'd sometimes mention it in passing (without bold font) that you think they weren't that important. | | | I still have a few more semesters of computer science; I'm almost sure all the textbooks would be written by Tanenbaum (again!). |

| | Tanenbaum: do you still feel that free distribution of Minix via the net is not the best way to distribute Minix? | | | ast@cs.vu.nl (Andy Tanenbaum) writes: > > MINIX was designed to be reasonably portable, and has been ported from the > Intel line to the 680x0 (Atari, Amiga, Macintosh), SPARC, and NS32016. | | | ast@cs.vu.nl (Andy Tanenbaum) writes: >My point is that writing a new operating system that is closely tied to any >particular piece of hardware, especially a weird one like the Intel line, >is basically wrong. |

| | Amazon.com: Books: Distributed Systems: Principles and Paradigms |
| | Intended for use in a senior/graduate level distributed systems course or by professionals, this text systematically shows how distributed systems are designed and implemented in real systems. | | | Written in the superb writing style of other Tanenbaum books, the material also features unique accessibility and a wide variety of real-world examples and case studies, such as NFS v4, CORBA, DCOM, Jini, and the World Wide Web. | | | I acquired this book after reading Tanenbaum's excellent "Modern Operating Systems, 2nd ed." While I enjoyed that book, I couldn't finish "Distributed Systems: Principles and Paradigms." Those without a programming background and a serious need to learn distributed design principles won't finish either. |

| | Computer Networks (Andrew Tanenbaum) - book review |
| | Tanenbaum's Computer Networks is a good, solid introductory textbook on networking suitable for those with a computing background, either university students or computer professionals. | | | I learnt my basic networking from it five years ago and have been using it as a reference ever since. | | | Computer Networks is still one of the best general texts on networking I know of, however, and it deserves to survive to a third edition, in which Tanenbaum will hopefully bring it more into line with reality in this regard. |

| | Proudly Serving My Corporate Masters: The Votemaster is Andrew Tanenbaum |
| | This morning the "Votemaster", the brains behind the popular (and leftward-leaning, although scrupulously fair in its numbers) Electoral Vote Predictor website, revealed that his true identity was Andrew Tanenbaum, noted computer scientist, author, and programmer. | | | I used Tanenbaum's Operating Systems book in a class in college, and I have been following the EV Predictor site daily. | | | This is one of those strange moments when two paths intersect completely unexpectedly. |

| | BBC - h2g2 - Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of quarter-inch tapes |
| | (It's been said the quote appears in Andrew Tanenbaum's book Computer Networks, Editions 1-3 from Prentice-Hall, 1988.) | | | This prompted someone, probably Andrew Tanenbaum as he's well known for his wit, to make the observation that a station wagon has a lot of bandwidth. | | | There's an often cited quote, usually expressed as "Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of tape" (somtimes as "Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of tapes hurtling down the highway") that's attributed to Andrew Tanenbaum although sometimes to a Warren Jackson (Director, Computer Science University of Toronto). |
