Question re: Spaceship Earth

I think it's Steve Wozniak actually. He was the brains of the operation.

Oh, it's definitely Wozniak, Jobs had minimal technical skill, Wozniak built the machines and wrote a lot of the initial software. Jobs was a salesman, among all the non-DIS-friendly adjectives that apply to him.

Hewlett-Packard also started in a garage in California! So I don’t think the figure in SE is a specific individual.

Sure but the aesthetic of the computer is very clearly based on the early Apple prototypes. It probably isn't supposed to be one specific individual, I think you're correct, but it's definitely primarily a caricature of Wozniak in my opinion.

Always bugs me that the guy reading the "Civil War Over" paper is reading it upside down. He's holding the newspaper folded, and the headline is right side up facing the riders (away from him). So, by logic, what the character is looking at must be upside down print.
