Cool, I'll have to watch that. I would expect to get a different perspective, I guess. kj.

This was really good, but it was interesting that even with these multiple people who lived through these events first hand, they sometimes had different memories of what really happened. But they were pretty much in agreement that various scenes in the movie were pure fiction.
In some cases the very first reporting of some event was in error, but history always refers back to that as the "truth" because it was in print and can be referenced. Woz says that the Wall Street Journal incorrectly reported his reasons for leaving Apple and people have been quoting that article that for decades, and he's given up trying to set things straight.
At times I think they forget that they're on camera being recorded and are more like a group of old friends exchanging memories and war stories about the first 10 years of Apple, and the years leading up to that. This is also the raw unedited video, so during the times that are for commercial breaks, they're still being recorded and you see what won't be broadcast.
