Hahaha!!! I was at the US FESTIVAL in Cali and met Steve Wozniak demonstrating them! I fell in love (with the Mac, not bushy faced Steve)

I love my Mac. I take her with me wherever I go.

Thorne - I was there too, but I didn't meet Steve Wozniak.

Haha Zizzy! I was pretty loaded for the whole 3 days, but I sure remember how impressed I was with Apple Macintosh. The Woz was like some old hippy- so casual and friendly. Talking to folks one on one. Did you at least make it onto the tent where the Macs were?

The ovation continues for at least five minutes before he quiets the crowd down." </SPAN></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/9E65AB87-EFC3-4D66-9EBE-1574F93779F6/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
