File:My Personal History of the Apple Corps of Dallas, Recalling the Early Days of Personal Computing

Description
This is a personal story I've wanted to tell for a long time… It is about my love affair with my Apple computer club, and the Apple Computer Company, covering 33 years of my life. (Hey, its 40 minutes, but I cover a lot of ground, so stick with me if you remember the early days!) I presented my story at the 400th meeting of my computer club,The Apple Corps of Dallas; we are the oldest Apple club in the world! Even if you are not an Apple fan, you may enjoy my perspective on the early days of "personal computers." (Many of my fellow club members are too young to remember the early days, that were so amazing and exciting—this is for them!) At the end, I've included my personal tribute to my Apple Heros, Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs.

To my family and friends, I hope my story explains the passion in my life for all things Apple, that I know you have tired of hearing at times!
