Ron Wayne's 'Adventures of an Apple Founder' is Now in the iBookstore

Ron Wayne's 'Adventures of an Apple Founder' is now available on the iBookstore. Wayne helped Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak form Apple. He was given a 10% stake which he sold alongside any ownership rights for $2300. That stake would be work $35 billion now.

There is much more to the story of Ron Wayne than his brief involvement with the Apple Computer Company (before it re-formed as Apple Computer Inc.).

In the spring of 1976 while working as chief draftsman and product development engineer at the video game maker Atari, Ron assisted a co-worker with the subtle intricacies of forming a small business.It was with Ron's natural sensibilities, experiences, and skills honed over a lifelong career in many disciplines that he offered himself openly as a resource to two much-younger entrepreneurs: Steve Jobs & Steve Wozniak. These same traits would drive Ron's decision to leave a short time later.

It is one of life's profound realities that people rarely recognize "history" while they are in the midst of making it. The events that transpired that spring would come to define such a case.

Adventures of an Apple Founder offers insight into the experiences that define the man whose passion for engineering and design spans over three quarters of a century, half a dozen industries, and a lifetime of adventures!
