Chuck Peddle didn't have the same opinions about Apple II nor Wozniak. It's a very interesting book.
ps I also have a working commodore amiga 500!
- rasz_pl 10y agomy favorite apple commodore exchange summing up the whole deal happened during computer history museums Commodore 64 25th anniversary panel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBvbsPNBIyk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBvbsPNBIyk. paraphrasing Tramiel: Unlike Apple I made computers for the lowest price possible enabling millions to own one. Wozniak: Unlike you Apple sold their computers at the price point that allowed them to not go bankrupt.
- branchless 10y agoThanks, it's great to see Tramiel in the flesh, he is as I imagined him from the book. I haven't watch all this yet but will do so. It never occurred to me to look this up on youtube as they seem from another age, but of course it's very recent history. Amazing.
