Origin story? Maybe. The coverage up through 2008 was good, but then the author pretty much shortcut the rest of the article. They made no mention of the immense financial difficulties Tesla faced in the 2007-2008 era, which is of significant historical importance. The article completely omitted the actual shipment and reception of the Roadster, and the subsequent development of the Model S. Nonetheless, it was nice to read about the very early history of the company, some of which was unknown to me. I note the parallels to Steve Jobs in this story, and how effective Tesla's PR machine is -- Musk really likes being portrayed as the founder.
