Pretty much I want to be Steve Wozniak, who I decided I was at a young age and not change. I want to go back to school and get my college degree like I would have without Apple. I want to teach young kids like I would have without Apple. And part of it is I'm accessible. I'm open. And so many people e-mail me and get me. And as much as I can I try to answer people, listen to them, be polite and say yes.

Hard disks have disappointed me more than most technologies.

Geek it's really more a characteristic where you don't socialize. You don't talk the normal languages.

Most inventors and engineers I've met are like me. They're shy and they live in their heads. The very best of them are artists. And artists work best alone.

Being an electronic genius was a reputation I had, maybe being even into math and science almost exclusively and not wanting to be in the other normal parts of the world.

In the end, I hope there's a little note somewhere that says I designed a good computer.

I just believe in whatever you're going to do, even if it's work, have a little bit of fun attitude about it. You can be happy.
