Woz is a has been. He hasn't been relevant in decades.

I disagree, i believe that if woz wasn't involved in the very beginning working out of that garage there wouldn't be a apple we no today.

he is a big part of apple's success regardless if he is there or not. just my opinion

Relevant no more in Apple, yes. In the fan or user base ... Woz is very relevant ... and I'll bet if he's gone before Jobs, with Jobs still at Apple, Apple will have front page on their site a farewell. Woz still gets the first run of all new Mac's shipped to him at no costs as a friendship with Jobs. I really enjoy that he's the regular guy that goes and purchases products from Apple just like you & me.

I'll also bet that Woz can still run programming circles around a few of us here - low level code.

Lastly, He's a teacher and every weekday that makes him VERY relevant to so many kids out there today - no more than every other teacher but still important.

I don't think you disproved rdowns. :p


Yes, Woz hasn't been very relevant in technology for around 2 decades, and he's good for a laugh every now and then, but he was around at the beginning, and those were very good days. I can't blame the crowd for liking him. He seems likable.

I won't post a link to where the shirt comes from, but it rhymes with dazzle. And it was made by yours truly.

And Woz bought it himself...

I love how the overexposure makes the patch cables look like sparks coming out of his head. Squint a bit if you don't see it...:D
