Hello,
I do not write much into the list these times, but I read everything.
I just saw a new book about Linus Torvalds life tranlated in French, so
I think that it is a few months old in the USA. It was at FNAC, a French
store where everybody can impolitely read the books without the security
being impolite with you (this was the subject of one of their adverts, and
it is still true).
There is an eleven page chapter about the QL, why Linus did buy one,
what he did develop with it, what he did like and dislike about it
eg. he was not happy at all with the OS in ROM so that it is impossible
to patch it.
I did not buy it, the rest seems not interesting enough. And there is
his usual arrogance: "I am the best in the world, the code that I develop
is always perfect".
