When His Project Was Canceled, an Unemployed Programmer Kept Sneaking Into Apple to Finish the Job   via Mental Floss

The Graphing Calculator Story by Ron Avitzur

Why did Greg and I do something so ludicrous as sneaking into an eight-billion-dollar corporation to do volunteer work? Apple was having financial troubles then, so we joked that we were volunteering for a nonprofit organization. In reality, our motivation was complex. Partly, the PowerPC was an awesome machine, and we wanted to show off what could be done with it; in the Spinal Tap idiom, we said, "OK, this one goes to eleven." Partly, we were thinking of the storytelling value. Partly, it was a macho computer guy thing - we had never shipped a million copies of software before. Mostly, Greg and I felt that creating quality educational software was a public service. We were doing it to help kids learn math. Public schools are too poor to buy software, so the most effective way to deliver it is to install it at the factory.

It's rare that I get on a subway car that's empty so I thought I would take a picture... The last stop in this case is Times Square, although since we were headed in the direction of Queens it became the first stop.

Also had a little fun photoshopping some art into this one ;)
