I've been a Mac user since 1986, and an investor since 1984, and knew Woz and Jobs distantly back in the Homebrew Computer Club days of 1977-78. Also, a friend of mine lent them money to build the Apple I and then was a principal designer of the Apple II. Jobs & Wozniak sold their VW bus & HP calculator, respectively, to finance the Apple I. Jobs got the parts on credit and they sold the kits so fast they didn't need any other capital. The only principal designer of the Apple II was Wozniak, who did everything but the switching power supply. They really weren't coming to the HCC anymore in 1977-78, since they were busy around the clock preparing for the first West Coast Computer Faire in March, 1977, and dealing with the aftermath, but Chris Espinosa used to show up. If you've been an Apple investor since 1984, you have my sympathy.
