FYI we are talking about the Apple II without which the whole concept of 
a personal computer that anyone could buy would not have existed. OK 
another computer would have done it a few years later, but that is not 
the point.

It feels a bit like someone working with genetic material everyday and 
then say: 'Mendel, never heard of that guy, or was it a girl?'. Anyway, 
if we compiled a list of entertaining books about the history of 
computers and surrounding science is there any change you'd read them? 
When is your birthday?
