I was fortunate enough to watch him in person, delivering the keynote in 2005. This was the keynote where Intel transition was announced. I was pretty far back in the big room on 1st floor of Moscone where the WWDC keynotes are held. I have seen plenty of videos of him before that and since then also. However, actually to be the in the same room is actually a totally different experience. The energy right before he enters the stage and the silence. The sudden applause. And the ususal disarming smile on his face.
This is one moment I am really proud of that I am one of the people who actually saw him in person.
And I am really sad that it will never happen again.
