Mark Zuckerberg's dad, Edward, is a dentist in Dobbs Ferry, New York, and no slouch when it comes to computers himself. Some highlights from an interview with the Los Angeles Times:
- Computer guy: The 56-year-old has always been tech-savvy himself. He bought his first office computer in 1984 (an IBM XT) and taught Mark programming on the family's Atari 800. Today, he lectures on keeping a state-of-the-art office.
- Key quote: "A key word here is 'vision.' We're all exposed to a lot of things, but how many can see where things are heading?"
