If you're looking for all the answers, a complete IT checklist, or the meaning of life, keep looking. Having said that, this book is a 'thought trigger' that will generate a lot of ideas and stimulate the reader to question their prejudices about IT and costs. I like to think of myself as an "outside the box" thinker, and this book stimulated that even more.

I especially like the way this book presents cost of ownership from a more holistic view than the traditional IT view, presenting a way of understanding that impact on the business should be factored into the equation, all the while applying "Occam's Raxor".

I am hoping Drew's "home boss" (as he refers to in the book) keeps him writing and on track so that he will write his next book soon. I look forward to it.
