Steve Wozniak Talk and Book Signing November 16, 2006

"Meet Woz"

Steve Wozniak will be the guest speaker during the Commonwealth Club of Silicon Valley event held at the Santa Clara Marriott (in the Grand Ballroom).

Mr. Wozniak is a prankster and is credited as the person who, around 1975, designed and created the first 'computer' with a keyboard and TV screen (rather than a box with switches on it). He also did it with fewer chips than any other 'computer' during this time. This 'computer' is now known as the Apple I and the rest is history.

Mr. Wozniak is on a book tour to promote his autobiography titled "iWoz: From Computer Geek to Cult Icon: How I Invented the Personal Computer, Co-Founded Apple, and Had Fun Doing It." The book is co-written with Gina Smith.

Details are sketchy for this event, as I could not find much information about it online. On Mr. Wozniak's webpage, this event is to be held in the Grand Ballroom with the program starting at 7:00pm and the book signing starting at 8:00pm.

I assume this event will be paid seating with ticket prices TBD as this event is not listed (yet) on the Commonwealth Club of SV website.
