The part where they put a giant white earbud in his ear is priceless, especially when he looks somewhat suspiciously at it. EDIT: direct link: [VIDEO]
> I wondered if he was a little nervous, but that didn’t seem likely for someone in his position. All sorts of people can get nervous speaking in public, including people that are thought of as being 'natural' public speakers like Steve Jobs ( [VIDEO] ) and Sam Harris ( [LINK] ), as well as billionaires ( [LINK] ) and CEOs ( [LINK] ).
The Interview that starts at 5:50 seems to be the one where this pre-show clip is from: [VIDEO] CNN dates that video to 1978 though: [LINK]
Steve Wozniak: Where's your beard? Steve Jobs: In the bathroom sink. I shaved it off. Steve Wozniak: Well, how come? Steve Jobs: 'Cause banks don't like beards. -- His first TV appearance: [VIDEO] Reportedly, Steve used to be a smelly bearded hippie.
