Steve, Me, and the Apple 1

The following actually happened, kind of. 

They say an average man has heros while a lucky man becomes the hero of his own life. As I waited for Steve Jobs to visit my houseboat, I wondered what I was a hero of. It didn’t take long to find out. 

Steve came to see the weather station I built with my Apple 1 single board computer. I met Jobs, and Wozniak at the Homebrew Computer Club, where a group of nerds were sharing the knowledge of the personal computers they had built. The two Steve’s demoed a computer they had created on a single board the size of piece of legal paper. That was a phenomenal achievement.
