Customer Reviews & Comments This information in this book is not really new or exciting. How computers actually work has not changed (in principal) much in the last 50 years. Most of the information can be found on the web. Save 30 dollars and buy the International Student Edition The Architecture of Computer Hardware and System Software: An Information Technology Approach. However, the exercises at the end of the chapter are not in the same order. For example, question 10.1 in this book is question 10.4 in the International Student Edition.
