Before cell phones that fit in the palm of your hand and slim laptops that fit snugly into briefcases, computers were like strange, alien vending machines. They had cryptic switches, punch cards and pages of encoded output. But in 1975, a young engineering wizard named Steve Wozniak had an idea: What if you combined computer circuitry with a regular typewriter keyboard and a video screen? The result was the first true personal computer, the Apple I, a widely affordable machine that anyone could understand and figure out how to use. Wozniak's life-before and after Apple-is a "home-brew" mix of brilliant discovery and adventure, as an engineer, a concert promoter, a fifth-grade teacher, a philanthropist, and an irrepressible prankster. From the invention of the first personal computer to the rise of Apple as an industry giant, iWoz presents a no-holds-barred, rollicking, firsthand account of the humanist inventor who ignited the computer revolution. 538 $a Mode of access: World Wide Web. 600 10 $a Wozniak, Steve, $d 1950- 610 20 $a Apple Computer, Inc. $x History. 650 0 $a Computer engineers $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Inventors $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Computer industry $z United States $x History. 700 1 $a Smith, Gina. 700 1 $a Lawlor, Patrick G. $q (Patrick Girard) 710 2 $a hoopla digital. 856 40 $u https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/10755722 $z Instantly available on hoopla. 856 42 $z Cover image $u https://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ttm_9781400123285_180.jpeg 941 $a 1 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20161103011501.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=18E531F2A18B11E6AED112AEDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
