About this book

In 1976, three engineers from Austin, Texas created something that would one day touch the lives of more than half of the developed world. Neither "starting a revolution" nor "changing the world" was included in their mission statement. But with the help of some very smart people, a little dumb luck, and a lot of inventive customers, that's exactly what happened.From its humble beginnings in a garage and narrowly avoiding a burnt-down headquarters, to making it to space and being honored by the Inventors Hall of Fame, this is the story of how National Instruments (NI) made history. It might not be sexy. It might not be cool. But it's a true tale that just might change how you see the world.
