I, Steve Wozniak, did not participate in the theft of the BASIC. It was funny to me to see others enjoying doing this. I had never used BASIC myself, at that time, only the more-scientific languages like Fortran, Algol, and PL-1, and several assembly languages. I sniffed the air and sensed that you needed BASIC to sell computers into homes, because of the book 101 Games in BASIC. I loved games and saw games as the key. It was the [MS] BASIC that inspired me to write a BASIC interpreter for my 6502 processor, in order to have a more useful computer.

I gave all my Apple wealth away because wealth and power are not what I live for. I have a lot of fun and happiness. I funded a lot of important museums and arts groups in San Jose, the city of my birth, and they named a street after me for being good. I now speak publicly and have risen to the top. I have no idea how much I have but after speaking for 20 years it might be $10M plus a couple of homes. I never look for any type of tax dodge. I earn money from my labor and pay something like 55% combined tax on it. I am the happiest person ever. Life to me was never about accomplishment, but about Happiness, which is Smiles minus Frowns. I developed these philosophies when I was 18-20 years old and I never sold out.

Oh hell no. I am 100% Apple fan and that stupid mouse charge port was fucking stupid. They *should* be called out for doing stupid shit.

As for your alt-tab, it's just a difference in how you use things. Like someone else said, you can alt-tab to the app, and then alt-tilde to the window within the tab. Windows and Linux have other different stupid shit.

The small inconsistencies and bugs you would think easily squashed are still there. And yeah, to have to reboot to fix small issues is so 1990s. The network and Safari issues definitely exist :/
