I Left Apple In April Of 1984,

Being Idealistic Really Helps You Overcome Some Of The Many Obstacles Put In Your Path.

I Did Some Products For The Apple Ii, Most Notably The First Small Low Cost Thermal Printer, The Silent Type.

But I Think Steve's Main Contribution Besides Just The Pure Leadership Is His Passion For Excellence. He's A Perfectionist. Good Enough Isn't Good Enough. And Also His Creative Spirit. You Know He Really, Really Wants To Do Something Great.

I Was A Grad Student At Uc Berkeley When I Bought My Apple Ii And It Suddenly Because A Lot More Interesting Than School

I Knew The Apple Ii Was Great When I Bought It, But As I Dug Into The Details It Just Completely Blew Me Away The Creative Artistic Approach That The Designers Had Taken.
