Woz gets a new job

Woz is an incredible person. As others have mentioned above, he's done a lot for humanity and "just folks" with his Apple money - the US festivals, his work with schools and his contributions to The Arts in San Jose. Yes, there is a Woz Way, named for him. One of my fondest memories is going to the San Jose Ballet a few years ago to watch The Nutcracker. Before the actual dancing begins there are some short bits that set the scene: A street scene in winter, kids and adults heading into the house, eating, drinking - a lot of pantomime. For many years there was Steve Wozniak playing the walk-on role of a chestnut vendor pushing his cart of chestnuts. Wow! Even though we knew who it was, he still looked like a little kid who has the choicest role in the school play.

Some commenters have said that he's lost his engineering brilliance and this is true to some extent. After all he crashed his airplane on takeoff in the early 80s and walked away from the demolished plane. If it were me, I'd feel lucky to be alive, much less losing some part of my memory.

The link to MODBOOK is not working right it has an ( in it

Wow! I love his shiny black Macbook !!!

i hope he convinces them to make them cheaper. i have an old powerbook screaming for a makeover.

Does Woz actually do anything of any relevance? He is arguably the inventor of the personal computer and I thank him for that but, is he actually useful anymore?

Can someone give me a primer or real brief summary on what's up with this guy? Did he have a falling out with Steve Jobs? Does he still have any financial ties to Apple? He seems to be the opposite, in terms of liking mods, hacks, and jailbreaking and whatnot.

i just really hope they a real keyboard on these things. that was the key thing that stopped me from getting on. (and the prices... sheeesh, apple tax my butt)

Woz has been using his geek cred -- and money -- for the good of mankind (for real, not sarcastically) for a very, very long time.
One only has to drive on Woz Way here in San Jose to be reminded of that.

Dear God,

Please do not allow an internet site to publish a photo of me urinating or defecating no matter how famous and/or geeky I become.

Amen

How on earth is this not a conflict of interest? lol
