Life before Computers…
Comment from E-mail
Woz, Happy New Year!
I am writing in the name of a club of children aged 8-13 years, for whom the Computer is the preferred “toy”. They know a lot of the history of Apple and you are for them what Tom Swift was for you. They wrote about you an article (“The Great Kids of the Computers”) in their magazine named ” PC’s Ateliers”.
It’s really a honor for us to can write to you.

I am very delighted to see your note. It means as much to me to receive it as it could have meant to you to send it. Please tell the club that there is nothing more interesting than every aspect of computers. To me, growing up, the knowledge was very much like a toy to me, even though I had little hope of ever having a computer in my life. Sometimes I wish I were born later and could grow up with computers, but then I wouldn’t have been able to see how life was BEFORE computers.
