How the Mac was born

Andy Herzfeld was part of the original team which created the Macintosh and now he's promoting his book documenting the brainstorming of the first real personal computer (as distinct from machines for corporate drones) in the early 1980s.

Among the interesting snippets in this CNet interview are the prediction that Windows' days of domination are numbered and that Apple needs to open up its iTunes/iPod encoding to other companies.

For fanatical Mac heads, Herzfeld's website Folklore.org carries many more vignettes from his time at Apple.
