Anyone else find it odd that Steve Wozniak has to stand in line to get the latest device from Apple? Is it just that he enjoys the meet & greet, or is he not enough of a living legend for Apple to ship him a complimentary one for free?
He does it because he doesn't like the preferential treatment. He loves the whole atmosphere of waiting in line and being a part of the buzz. I think he values fair more than anything; he gave away a sizable part of his money to the early employees because it wasn't fair for him to have so much while they worked hard and got so little.
Yeah that was very impressive too but I was actually more impressed with was the fact that he gave the first 5 employees a million dollars worth of his stock.
