A bit old of a thread, but I was at the event and I wanted to say that indeed Woz was a bit annoying with his defensiveness. I think that unfortunately after his airplane accident he has suffered. His personal website is interesting, but so much of it is full of defensiveness and "I invented this" and "I did that", not that he didn't do those things and he wasn't a genius, but nobody says that he didn't, so there's really no reason to put like that, or, he wasn't the only one. Anyhow, if you read it, you might understand what I'm trying to say. Same behaviour (but much more toned down was in the event).
As for Jack... well, you figure it out.
Adam Chowaniac and William, the father of the PC, those two were 100% on the ball, but unfortunately didn't get much air-time.
You guys might be interested in my question to William: "why go with Intel 8086 instead of Motorola 68000", and his ensuing answer. I wrote about it in this thread:
