That's what I call it.

Yeah, it's just a real time

display of current operations.

You can see what you're working

on while you're working on it.

Okay. Look...

Don't you get this?

This is freedom.

This is freedom to create,

and to do, and to build,

as artists, as individuals.

Look, look, look.

But look,

you're overreacting.

Even if you were developing this for

freaks like us, and I doubt you are,

nobody wants to buy

a computer. Nobody.

How does somebody know what they

want if they've never even seen it?

Huh?

We're going to Homebrew.

No...

lam not presenting

anything at Homebrew.

I'm. No.

Why do people drive so slow'?

Get out! Move!

I'm telling you right now,

I've been to Homebrew.

I understand the caliber

of people who speak there.

I'm not one of those people.

I'm telling you this thing is amazing.

I'm not...

You're gonna be great, Woz.

Steve, could you do me a

favor, could you just please

slow down a little bit

so that I feel like

there's a chance we might

actually get there alive.

I want to get there first

so we present first.

You know if we're

gonna do this thing,

we need to come up

with a name.

Yeah, I know. Something catchy.

Something...

I've been

thinking about it.

...electric.

It needs to feel like...

I don't know.

What about

Enterprise Computers?

No.

No Star Trek names.

I swear.

What about Kirk Enterprises?

I will drive this car

right off this road.

Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine!

I will run the car

right off the road.

Jesus! Calm down! Seriously.

Okay. Nothing Trekkie. Jesus.

It just needs to be, like, something

that people will relate to, you know?

Like, it needs to be

something that you see,

and you're just, like,

"Man, I just gotta have it."

APDIe.

Excuse me?

Apple.

Apple, like the fruit'?

The fruit of creation. Apple.

It's simple but sophisticated.

It comes before Atari

in the phone book, too.

That is so much better

than Phaser Beam Computers.

It's naming it

after a fruit.

Apple. Apple Computer.

But, what about

Apple Records?

Apple Records?

The Beatles' label, stu...

What, they own

the word "apple"?

Why do you always

hate The Beatles?

Well, I do not

hale The Beatles.

Yes, you do. You always...

I do not hate The Beatles.

They're just, they're not

Dylan, and you know that.

Okay, and that's a comparison

that you always make.

Well, I...

'Cause it's obvious.

And I don't think it's fair.

Apple. Really? Apple?

Right, listen. If we come up with

something better, we'll change it.

Let's just go with it

and see if it sticks.

It will display

up to 192 memory locations

on the monitor simultaneously.

Allow me to explain because it's

quite fascinating, actually.
