A lot of people thought Steve Jobs was a CEO of Apple but he never was until he came back to Apple in 1997.

Apple was our benefactor at starting General Magic, but about a year later decided they would rather BE General Magic and tried to make us blink out of existence... which we eventually did, but it took a few years.

I did some products for the Apple II, most notably the first small low cost thermal printer, the Silent Type.

As you know, Microsoft eventually kind of grabbed the gold ring out of Apple's hands, I guess.

The Apple II was not designed like an ordinary product. It used crazy tricks everywhere

I'm the kind of developer who likes to throw lightning rods around. To make a great program there's got to be at least one person at the center who is breathing life into it. In a ferocious way.

Part of Steve's job was to drum into us how important what we were doing actually would be to the world
