Here\u2019s the full quote:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The garage is a bit of a myth. We did no designs there, no breadboarding, no prototyping, no planning of products. We did no manufacturing there. The garage didn\u2019t serve much purpose, except it was something for us to feel was our home. We had no money. You have to work out of your home when you have no money.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So there was a garage, and while it might have served as Apple\u2019s headquarters in theory it wasn\u2019t where the bulk of the work got done. It turns out Woz actually designed and built the first Apple computer at his Hewlett-Packard cubicle. \u201cThat was an incredible time,\u201d he said. \u201cIt let me do a lot of side projects.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>You can check out the whole interview, which focuses on Apple\u2019s early days, via the source link below for even more insight into how the company got started.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sourcevia-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"sourcevia fCaps fLS0\"><span class=\"label fLS1\">SOURCE<\/span> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.businessweek.com\/articles\/2014-12-04\/apple-steve-wozniak-on-the-early-years-with-steve-jobs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BLOOMBERG<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apple, one of the most valuable companies on earth, got its start in a garage.
