Apple co-founder Steve (“Woz”) Wozniak is rooting for the iPad, which he says has been a mission for Steve Jobs’ since day one, reports “The Huffington Post” (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/04/05/apple-cofounder-steve-wozniak-tablets-normal-people_n_844850.html)

Speaking to a gathering of engineers at Storage Networking World in Santa Clara, California, Woz told his audience that tablets were intended for “the normal people in the world.” He said the iPad had been Steve Jobs’s ultimate goal since Apple was founded in 1976.
“But it was just hard to get there, because we had to go through a lot of steps where you connected to things, and (eventually) computers grew up to where they could do … normal consumer appliance things,” Woz said.
