Woz interviewed about Apple's 30th

I love Woz just as much as I do Jobs. They're both great people, but Woz is just a cool cool guy. I too was touched by that. I did not know Jobs invited him. That's so cool!

What a down to earth class act is the Woz. I am never disappointed when reading a Steve Wozniak interview or story. He is always unassuming, strait to the point and frank. Thank God the short-sighted management at HP opened the door for him to start Apple. I agree, neither Steve could have made Apple a go without the other. Great story once again.

PS: Yeah, I got warm fuzzies from the last paragraph too. But I would rather have the Playboys than the HP Catalog

"Am I the only whose heart was warmed a tad by this?"

Nope, it's not just you ;-)

Woz is my hero, no arguments :-D

HP in the 1970's had Nirvana like cult status. Their test equipment rivaled the best (Tektronix, IMHO) and for a young engineer, employment at HP was to die for. Wozniak took a huge leap of faith to leave HP.

Memories; getting the annual, hardbound HP catalog in the mail was better than getting a year's worth of Playboy, I still have a 1975 copy. Long live geeks.

Am I the only whose heart was warmed a tad by this?

"Q Do you attend Apple product announcement events?

A That's actually one of the nicest things Steve does for me: He makes sure I am always invited to the VIP guest area for the product rollouts. I appreciate that more than I can ever say. Those things have inspired me. They have inspired my children when I have brought them in the past. They are really great to see."

It's kinda sweet to think that Steve and Steve are still friends after all these years.
