We differ on that one. You describe it as excellent - I would describe it
as a piece of crap.

For example, here is his description of the iMac unveiling:
"Colored teal and white, shaped like a cone and able to glow in the dark."

There are dozens of instances in the book where Carleton got details of
events (some of which I was present at) dead wrong. If he got the simple
stuff that wrong, how can we expect his complicated stuff to be correct?
