Down to the conversationalist tone and the pranking - it's very, very similar. Except that it's pretty clear that Steve is skirting the truth a lot, where Feynman clearly doesn't care if he ruffles feathers or pisses people off. kmo One thing I’m amazed hasn’t come up in all the reviews of this book is how like Feynman Woz sounds.

When Cloud 9 finally choked it down, Wozniak did what Wozniak does: give the number away to a teen runaway line, where desperate youth could grab any payphone and press the 9 key over and over until someone could speak to them. For publicity? For a good name? No, because Woz is just that cool." grtz s this is how GOOD a man Woz is:

I bet he tricked her into putting salt in the coffee herself. I’m just guessing but I bet Woz was strictly telling the truth when he said he hadn’t put any salt in the author’s coffee.
