Just saw this at MacRumors.com

So young and nervous. Funny to see that, compared to how loose and "in command" he is today when he prowls the keynote stage.

He acts like he's going to jump out of his skin at any second.

The last time he would run his hand through a full head of hair.

He seems so in awe of the surroundings and process. I'm sure it's all old hat to him now, but he looks so genuinely "wow...I'm in a TV studio; there are some lights and some cool equipment...". It's neat to see that side of someone. You almost forget he was ever a regular guy and not the King of the Universe.

Fun find!

I think you can tell even in this brief clip that there's something intense, driven, and of course stylish about the guy.

That is pretty amusing. Calm, yet nervous. It was after this first airing that Steve learned about the power of the RDF, and flew to a secret mountain retreat to learn its ways. The rest is keynote history. Unfortunately the Woz never understood the RDF and remained perpetually nerdy and awkward.

...into the light of a dark black night.
