Interesting stuff, but takes a _lot_ of time to swim in the sea of 
information...

The approach:
"One basic premise of this project is that technologies must be 
understood as devices that have social, cultural, and symbolic lives. 
The history of a popular technology like the Mac has to include the 
perspectives of its designers; the people who write about it; its 
early users; and creators of supporting technology, like software and 
peripherals. This means that many different kinds of documents need 
to be preserved: technical specifications, project reports, source 
code, drawings and schematics, but also marketing plans, focus group 
studies, commercial storyboards, product reviews, and user manuals."
