		Andrew Tanenbaum is a well-respected researcher who has made a very good living thinking about operating systems and OS design.
		Although Andrew Tanenbaum has been derided for his heavy hand and misjudgements of the Linux kernel, such a reaction to Tanenbaum is unfair.
		Tanenbaum that a micro-kernel _is_ the way to go, but the more I look at the Minix source, the less I believe that it is a micro-kernel.

		Tanenbaum’s renowned writing style and painstaking research make this one of the most accessible and accurate books available, maintaining the author’s popular method of presenting a computer as a series of layers, each one built upon the ones below it, and understandable as a separate entity.
		Tanenbaum is one of the CS classical authors.
		Tanenbaum's style is also the same: a bit arid and telegraphic, specially for newcomers, but his approach is much better for an introductory computer organization and architecture course than the books by Patterson/Hennessy (which are mandatory reading for any CS student/instructor as well).

	Computer Networks (Andrew Tanenbaum) - book review
		Tanenbaum's Computer Networks is a good, solid introductory textbook on networking suitable for those with a computing background, either university students or computer professionals.
		Such a view of the world must have seemed rather problematic in 1989, and now seems almost ludicrous (at least in Australia; perhaps things are different in Europe).
		Computer Networks is still one of the best general texts on networking I know of, however, and it deserves to survive to a third edition, in which Tanenbaum will hopefully bring it more into line with reality in this regard.

	BBC - h2g2 - Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of quarter-inch tapes
		There's an often cited quote, usually expressed as "Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of tape" (somtimes as "Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of tapes hurtling down the highway") that's attributed to Andrew Tanenbaum although sometimes to a Warren Jackson (Director, Computer Science University of Toronto).
		The quote is in reference to a notion that in the early days of Usenet, the newsfeed (which was delivered via UUCP) to Australia had to be airmailed weekly since there was no connection between continents (the founder of Uunet for a while maintained the only connection between North American and Europe).
		This prompted someone, probably Andrew Tanenbaum as he's well known for his wit, to make the observation that a station wagon has a lot of bandwidth.

		I loved Andrew's Operating Systems book in college, but unless I'm misunderstanding his methodology, his use of statistics here is poor.
		I understand that what he's trying to do is provide a lot of different pictures of how the vote looks using different algorithms, different polls, etc., and a map with 10 or 12 states that are "too close to call" doesn't look very interesting...
		If I had to hazard a guess, Tanenbaum has pretty much given up on his day job to keep that web site going, while the Princeton guy is still trying to make his day job work for him.
