What is Digital Wars : Apple, Google, Microsoft and the Battle for the Internet about?

• Which of Apple, Google and Microsoft had an office with a "drawer of broken dreams" — and what (real) objects lay inside it? • When did Microsoft have the chance to catch Google in making money from search — and who vetoed it? • Why did Google test 40 shades of blue on its users? • How long did outside developers wait before asking to write apps for Apple's iPhone after Steve Jobs announced it? • Who said that Microsoft should have its own music player — and why did it fail? The answers, and much more, can be found in this new book by Charles Arthur, technology editor of The Guardian newspaper of London. __Digital Wars__ starts in 1998, when the internet and computing business was about to be upended — by an antitrust case, a tiny start-up and a former giant rebuilding itself.

Microsoft was a giant — soon to become the highest-valued company in the world, while Apple was a minnow and Google just a startup. By February 10 2012, Apple was worth more ($462bn
