Today at TechCrunch Disrupt, Michael Arrington sat down with Kleiner Perkins' partner John Doerr. They kicked off the talk by discussing Doerr's history. When he started at Kleiner in 1980, the personal computer revolution was just starting. Doerr noted that he dabbled with many of the early PCs, but "the Apple was way more compelling".
Doerr recalled going to an early meeting of the Homebrew Computer Club on Sand Hill road. He saw a scruffy faced man guy there who showed up and held up a motherboard. It was the motherboard of the Apple I. That man was Steve Jobs.
