So Steve Wozniak is speaking at my group’s Technical Leaders Lecture Series event in about 15 minutes. I got the backstage pass action going on and a seat saved in the second row (first row reserved for Cisco VPs). This should be fun and interesting.

Update: This was such a great event. He really was a great speaker and hearing about his life was captivating. He spoke for about an hour, but could have easily gone two. He had some really poignant comments about engineering should be to make things better for everyone, not just to make things. He had a short meet and greet session afterward for pictures and autographs so I did the obvious geek thing and had him autograph my iPhone. He told me he really likes the design of the first generation phone better because of the weight of the metal case and the the overall look of the design.
