@jranft Woohoo!! let me know how you like it!

@Pogue After listening to you and on John Gruber’s Talk Show podcast, I’m totally buying this book. Can’t wait to read it.

Amazon is selling "Apple: The First 50 Years" (now a New York Times bestseller) for 25% off—which, on a $50 full-color book, really helps. Interestingly, Amazon also sent refunds to everyone who'd paid full price earlier. amazon.com/Apple-First-Ye…

@jonovate Oh that's weird! I've heard from about 20 people that they got automatic refunds! Wonder if just contacting their support would achieve the same thing quicker? But returning it will work, too. And thank you!

@Pogue I never received any refund, so I will reorder and return original order.

@finalcutgod Agreed. You done good!

@Pogue Shit I bought this full price at the local bookstore. No biggie, I will support the local bookstore

@Craig__Bowling Well done!

@Pogue No regrets paying full price @Pogue, fantastic book.

@NYRfan4ever Yes! It's available everywhere, including bookshop.org or your local bookstores.

@Pogue Can one get this book in other places besides amazon?

@ryanjaghab @AlSultan_Meriam @amazon I heard back from CustService right away: "We just doublechecked our Customer Service email box and do not see any emails from Ryan Jaghab. If you could provide his email address, we will reach out to him immediately."

@Pogue @AlSultan_Meriam @amazon I’ve emailed them twice with no response when I got my copy last week.

I just recived my copy of Apple the first 50 years by @Pogue @amazon were nice enough to ship it in a box larger than they should’ve used and somehow has some grease on the cover though the box was dry! So it arrived in this condition 🙃 The book however is massive! And I’m so excited to start reading it.

@jonnyb098 Now EVERYONE is going to want a bookmark like yours.. :)

@Pogue Got mine and wow! What a treat to celebrate apples 50th. I even repurposed some old Apple packaging as a bookmark 😊

Thrilling news in Pogueland: "Apple: The First 50 Years" is a NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!!! And Amazon, and USA Today! (And minus celebrity memoirs, it would be Number 1!) Thank you to everyone who's supported this journey!

@NickD2C @AlSultan_Meriam @amazon Oh wow... so sorry about that hassle, Nick. But... that was clever!

@Pogue @AlSultan_Meriam @amazon I wish I would have seen this earlier. I returned two copies to Amazon until I got one without a damaged cover.

@ryanjaghab @AlSultan_Meriam @amazon Hey Ryan! Can you share your email address (I'm pogue@me.com)? The associate publisher told me that they are checking that email EVERY HOUR... grr...

@AlSultan_Meriam WOOHOO! Let me know how you like it!

@Pogue Congrats! I’m getting my copy today!

@k6lcsclint It actually WAS!

@Pogue SO my pre-purchase of my Kindle Edition WAS important ... (g)

@stiff_kitten_ You mean, put naked Valerie Bertinelli on the cover of MY book? 😀

@Pogue Well Valerie Bertinelli was naked on the cover of her book, and it is number 2 on the list. Maybe if you had chosen a similar cover…. 😳

@qznj10 LOL!

@Pogue this means I have to read 5 other books before reading the 6th

@majornelson LOL!!

@Pogue Congrats! Hey Liza, David is coming for ya!

@Apple_Geek_Actu Oh amazing!

@Pogue Congratulations 🎊. I’ve started reading it yesterday and I love it

@bohnsack I hadn't noticed that!!

@Pogue And the number 1 male author on the list.

@NickD2C Much appreciated, sir!

@Pogue Congratluations! It's a great book. Thank you.

@philroyNZ OH, I gotcha!! :)

@Pogue No, just put your cover into ChatGPT after your comment about my (still lost) copy of your book possibly being held up as the courier driver has a read…and asked it to create the image

So good news...my copy of @Pogue "Apple : The First 50 Years" arrived in the country on the 13th. The not so good news...it appears to have vanished. It's been on the road for 5 days now to Wellington (a 6 hour drive) and the courier there hasn't received it😢
