I never get tired of reading this story. I remember spending a lot of time tinkering with Graphing Calculator as a kid—I didn't know how to actually model anything, but it was fun to tweak the demo models. I didn't realize it was the result of one of the world's most dedicated squatting operations.

(Given everything I've heard about Apple at that time, which is a fair amount, Avitzur's project was more disciplined and efficient than the majority of their officially sanctioned products.)
