Steve Wozniak: How I Invented the Personal Computer

Fascinating! More from Woz about what is now really, pure legend.

So on Highway 85 after picking Steve up from the airport coming back from Oregan, Woz heard Steve's suggestion for the company name, Apple Computer.

Woz actually gave out the schematics and code listings for the work he'd done to create his basic intepreter, but the other members of the club just didn't have the time to build them up.

Woz considered the Apple I a 'hack-job', taking his terminal typing program and combining it with a mirco-processor.

I really should start reading that book I was given last Christmas on the history of Apple. Maybe I can finish it before this Christmas! That's what an addiction to iPhone coding will do to you :)
