Steve Wozniak is my Master now– New T-Shirt in the MacMerc.com Store

396104485 594c11748a m Steve Wozniak is my Master now New T Shirt in the MacMerc.com StoreI’ve decided who I want to be when I grow up: I want to be Steve Wozniak. Creator of the Apple I and Apple II computers, co-founder of Apple Computer (now Apple, Inc.), developer of the classic video game “Breakout,” and incognito fifth grade teacher. I can identify with a man who believes that you should “Never trust a computer you can’t throw out a window.”

The Steve Wozniak is my Master now T-Shirt is an homage to the wildly awesome (and admittedly cheaper) Joss Whedon is my Master Now shirt from PVP and ThinkGeek.

This shirt pledges allegiance to one of our favorite Steves and is available in white on black in sizes Small to XLarge and sells for USD$17.90.

[see Woz on Charlie Rose: Part 1 and Part 2 and understand what makes him so cool.]…and before you give me grief over it, I did the honorable thing and emailed PVP’s Scott Kurtz and got his blessing. Thanks Scott!!

In Search of the Valley DVD released, featuring Mac legends

A new documentary on Silicon Valley premieres world-wide today, on DVD.

In Search of the Valley tells the story of three friends’ personal journey into the psyche of Silicon Valley, when in September of 2004 they swapped London for California, spending one month visiting and talking to many of the valley’s heavyweights and biggest personalities.

Despite being outsiders, the film’s makers secured access to the founders of some of Silicon Valley’s most important companies, including Apple’s Steve Wozniak, Adobe’s John Warnock, and Craig Newmark of Craigslist.org. The film also features Apple alumni Guy Kawasaki, Sandy Miranda, Andy Hertzfeld, Dan Kottke, and the late Jef Raskin, as well as the computer pioneer Lee Felsenstein.
