sdave··on Steve Wozniak: How I Invented the Personal Computer
yes Jacques , thats what i thought for a while, but i hope he would do well , at least create something good. for he still would be an inventor in his heart.
sdave··on Steve Wozniak: How I Invented the Personal Computer
I highly recommend reading his book 'iWoz'. Wozniak is simply a genius inventor with highest ethics.

His book will inspire & motivate you ( as an engineer and person) & may even leave you completely in awe of this genius.

good talk btw , thanks for posting.
