The joy of simple, elegant electronics, a Steve Wozniak quote @jesslivingston @stevewoz

In the book Founders at Work, author Jessica Livingston interviews Steve Wozniak, cofounder of Apple Computer and the engineer of the first products. In a web excerpt, Woz is quoted as saying:

“…when I actually finally put together this little circuit and put some data into memory that should show up as color and it showed up color, it was just one of those eureka moments and you’re just shaking inside. It was just unbelievable. Here we had it in just a couple of chips. I had color, and then I had graphics, and then I had hi-res, and then I had paddles and sound to put games into the machine.”

Share the joy of simple, elegant electronics and making.
