Woz is coming to my school.

Quote:
Wozniak is expected to speak not only about his history with Apple and as a computer-industry pioneer but also about his current venture, Wheels of Zeus, an emerging wireless company that uses wireless technology to track people, pets and objects.
And it's right after my night class gets out, well it's an hour before but I told my teacher about it as soon as I found out about it and he's excited to see him speak too so we're getting out early.

That's cool. I hope to meet Woz someday. I figure I'll bump into him on the street sometime.

Woz came to my university back in April, too. I had tickets months in advance but ended up canceling at the last minute.

There's a low-res QuickTime stream and downloadable (500+ MB!) video of his trip to NCSU if anyone is interested. I suspect he gives the same chit-chat to all the schools he visits.

The first several minutes are the chancellor and some other big dork from the MUG. Skip forward to about 00:14:40 to see the man of the hour.

Woz judged me in a high school debate tournament. Seriously. And he gave me good comments too.
