Ronald Wayne's autobiography now in the iBookstore

Apple co-founder Ronald Wayne's autobiography Adventures of an Apple Founder is now available in the iBookstore.

Who is Ronald Wayne?

Many Apple fans know the story of a young Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, busily working in the Jobs family garage in the 1970s. That effort would lead to the Apple we know today, with each man being credited as Apple co-founder.

There was a third party, too, whose name is less synonymous with Apple. Ronald Wayne was the young company's "adult supervision," and drew the very first logo and wrote the manual for the Apple I. Plus, he drew up the original partnership agreement between Jobs and Woz.

I'm sure those stories and more are in Adventures of an Apple Founder. He left the company a short time later, and he explains why he does not regret the decision in the book.

Those interested in Apple's history will want to pick it up. While you're at it, why not buy iWoz and Steve Jobs for the trifecta?

I was at a live interview with Ron Wayne only yesterday at the "Update 2011" conference in Brighton, UK. The audience of 500 web and app developers wondered what to make of this sixty year old man walking on stage in his three piece suit and watch chain, but after 30 minutes he had us all on the edge of our seats.

Far, far from being a bitter man, he came across as gracious, fascinating, a *great* story teller and still incredibly passionate about making and creating things, whether mechanical or electronic. A real gent.

I'll bet this autobiography is a fire-cracker of a good read. I'm going to check it out,
