Woz calculates "e"
Not everybody may know that Stephen Wozniak was also working for HP before becoming famous for his Apples.
Not everybody may know that he tried to sell the idea of the Apple I/II to HP and HP declined the offer.
Today you can find the Story in several places in the Internet.

I also found an article while reading through old issues of BYTE Magazine which some of you might find interesting.
I learned that the HP-41 was also an important tool for Woz in the 1980s. maybe the Apple computers would not exist without the HP-41C and its calculation power ;-)

[The article is too large to attach. Check the magazine out yourself: BYTE 1981, No. 06 (June), e.g. at https://archive.org/details/byte-magazine-1981-06 - warning: the file may be rather large]
