Woz Still Misses Homebrew Computer Club and Apple

The Woz is right - there's a feeling engendered by a technical team on the bleeding edge that can be unmatched by anything else. And what's more, it can be a good feeling - if the team is right. If not, well, it's still unmatched.

The Electronic Design site has nabbed a short interview with the Woz, where he waxes poetically about his time growing up as an Engineer and founding Apple. Even to this day, he says, he still misses the Homebrew Computer Club and his days running around Apple leading the technical teams. "I miss the technical camaraderie ... The whole feeling of being on a revolution, on the edge. I miss the intuitive philosophies."

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
