With all due respect, I can't help but think that the next up will be

  An adventures of a guy who moved a lawn across the street
  from where Steve Jobs was thinking of starting Apple.
To those downvoting - do you not find it odd that a person who says on his website that founding Apple "was an adventure that occupied only a small part of his life" [0] still decides to title his autobiography "Adventures of an Apple Founder"? This is riding coattails in its pure form, so pardon me for not being terribly excited about the book.

You can gather all you need to know about Wayne from this article: http://www.mercurynews.com/top-stories/ci_15214122

It always amazes me how life changing one decision can be. Imagine if he simply just "stuck around."

Imagine if he simply just "stuck around."

=> Maybe Apple would not be what it is now?
