Michael Chrichton not only wrote about Dinosaurs, Tornados or Robot theme parks. He also wrote about computers conquering our homes, and this is not a fictionary book. I last read it around 2004 for my broader research on the computing history for my first book about Commodore. Time to give it another go more than 20 years later. He wrote this one in 1983, the German translation is from the year after. He was seemingly a big fan of Apple and the IBM PC and was not too happy about Commodore, as far as I remember. Time to dive back in!
