This book is about a true engineer. Written by someone who enjoyed what he did, what he picked up on the way or left behind. Remarkable details on a person who defined the next generation of computing. What comes out most interesting in this book is the simplicity of the man with strong sense of humour and the passion to something new. Habitually inclined to break the rules in a constructive manner.
Did Woz leave Apple in disgust? Woz has another story to tell. He still is an employee of Apple. Paid the absolute minimum pay for a permanent worker and has no other reason than to start Cloud 9. A truely remarkable personality which comes out clearly from his book.
About the pranks well they look as Woz seems to be as a person but some need a 200+ IQ to get them ;-)
