Apple The First 50 Years

But on that day in San Jose, California, a hospital worker spelled it “Stephan.” 70 years later, he would legally change his name to Steve, but the world would always know him as Woz. During an interview with the San Jose Mercury News, arranged by Woz’s mom, the reporter accidentally stepped on the power supply and fried the computer in a puff of smoke. In subsequent years, Corning (with a $200 million research contribution from Apple) made steady improvements to Gorilla Glass, making it increasingly scratchproof.
