About this listen

Much has been written about the battles that rage between software companies over market share. FoxTales is the story of one such battle, told from the perspective of a foot soldier. My perspective. When I started with Fox Software, it was a company of barely thirty people. It shared space in a small bank building on the edge of Ohio’s farm country. It was a quaint, family run business, and its product, FoxBASE+, was a niche player. The next four years brought many surprises: lawsuits, buyouts, off-the-wall management, and even a flying book or two. Things no college course could prepare you for. And to think, I could’ve been a farmer. ** This tenth anniversary edition contains a new foreword by Microsoft Software Engineer & former Fox developer David Heindel, a new note from the author, and a collection of Fox Software "souvenirs" (maps, memos, etc.) ** Professionals & Academics Science & Technology Technology Software Business
