Customer Reviews


5 stars Great contrast to the Steve Jobs story
I bought this book about a year ago when I had recently been laid off and wanted to introduce some new ideals into my brain.

I read the Second Coming of Steve Jobs, which showed how a man can be a cutthroat and succeed.

iWoz however, shows how a man can find success doing something he loves, and not get hung up on money or power.

After initially reading the book I thought it was kind of blah, but after seeing more of Woz in person and in various bios, I truly appreciate how genius he truly is.

Excellent read for anyone seeking innovation and drive, because Woz clearly has it!


5 stars Very enjoyable espec. the father son relationship!
My wife and I have been really enjoying listing to the 'Audible unabridged version' The father - son relationship is very interesting. A lot of very nice insights. It is quite a bit of fun to listen to the book as we are driving on trips. Highly recommended!


3 stars Disappointed
As an early adopter of the TRS-80 (1978) and later Apple II I have been an avid reader of much history of this period. There are great nuggets of inside events in this book but a little too much of Woz's philosophy and not as much new as I had hoped. The tech info was great though some of it a bit hard to follow which might be understandable of a proven genius telling his story.


3 stars Worth reading
I enjoyed reading this book but like others, I found it annoying at times. It is an autobiography. Most of the book is about boring details of Steve Wozniak's life. His account of how Apple Computer started and how the Apple I and II where created is very interesting, unfortunately it is a very small part of the book. It was very annoying reading his constant bragging about how humble he is.

The book gave me a better understanding of early PC history and the history of Apple. I also wanted to learn more about a guy I consider a hero. I did learn more about Woz but I must say that based on what I learned from this book I respect him a lot less than before.


5 stars Great guy, great book...
I'm a mac user, and I always wanted to know how Woz lived all Apple's building process.
It's a great biography and really enjoyable to read. All is written in a very friendly way.
I really recommend it. It's a piece of computer history, I think, all geeks should know.
