When Woz personally delivers your Apple computer - CNET

That young lady sure was shocked!

Woz sounds like such an insane but decent guy. Love him.

I know you guys have heard this before (it either happened on here or AppleInsider back in the day, actually). When Woz had his "officeCam" that you could control through your browser, he had a snare drum that had obviously been signed by someone. Some folks noticed that and we started wondering who's sig it was - I looked it up and figured out it was Ringo Starr's signature. The day after I posted it the drum was moved so that we could all see the signature more clearly.

My favorite Brush with Greatness story. Woz is as cool as Jobs was an a$$hole - it took both to make Apple happen. Without them there would be no computing as we know it today. The fact that the Apple I kit originally cost $666 scares me, though.
