Собирая материалы для биографии, я часто обращался к «Нью-Йорк таймс», «Вашингтон пост», «Уолл-стрит джорнэл», «Сан-Хосе меркьюри ньюс», «Сиэтл таймс», «Сиэтл пост-интелидженсер», «Сиэтл уикли», «Тайм», «Ньюсуик», «Атлантик мансли», «Нью-йоркер», «Уайед», «Фаст компани», «Бизнес уик», «Форбс», «Форчун» и «Вашингтон спектейтор».

Согласно Акту о свободе информации (АСИ), были сделаны запросы в Центральное разведывательное управление, Федеральное бюро расследований, Управление по социальному обеспечению, Налоговое управление, Службу иммиграции и натурализации и в Центральный архив вооруженных сил Национального центра записей данных о персонале в Сент-Луисе. Ответы на все мои запросы пре.-доставлялись быстро. Восемнадцать месяцев после получения запроса, согласно АСИ, о личном деле Фрица Балмера (информация общедоступная после смерти) Государственный департамент не предоставлял никаких данных.

Среди онлайновых источников следует упомянуть «Реджистер», «Си-НЕТ Инвестор» и «Компани Слют», а также Moldea.com. Когда это было уместно, я напрямую цитировал источники в тексте. Дополнительную информацию можно найти на сайте www.badboyballmer.com, как и копии официальных документов, включая часть нюрнбергского личного дела Фреда Балмера.
