Book Reviews of the iWoz: Computer Geek to Cult Icon
Customer Review: no disrespect meant, but writing seemed juvenile
Summary: 2 Stars
I agree with all the other reviews that this gentleman will go down in history as one of the great inventors of the 20th Century.
Also, in reading the book, I was impressed at how humble and a truly likable guy he appears to be. The kind of guy you would want for a lifelong friend.
He is definitely a one of a kind individual but this is supposed to be a book review and in this regard I was disappointed.
I expected more depth about his experiences in life and with Apple Computer. By page 50 I felt this book was being written for a young person or teenage audience. I think his experiences with Apple Computer only made up about 1/3 of the book.
In the last chapter I believe I was vindiated when he appeared to start speaking directly to the young people.
I wanted a lot more detail and depth and I wanted to hear what this talented man had to say and I must say I was disappointed. Too much info about trivial things and not enough material for an adult readership interested in this man's experiences....especially before and during his founding of Apple Computer.
