- "Wozniak took time out from a game of segway polo in New Zealand..."
Upon reading this portion of the article I immediately used the back button realizing it discredited any opinion Wozniak could possibly offer. -

- Then how did you post that if you weren't on the page?

- I spent 5K on my last road racing bike... but Segway polo?! How lazy do you have to be?

- At least have ridden a Segway before you make a comment on one.

- The interviewer twisted Woz's words into something he didn't say. Check out the real story by Woz himself: http://listserver.themacintoshguy.com/pipe...ary/019302.html

- Woz has always been a bit crazy, he's not as business minded as Jobs.

- That's because Jobs is nothing more than a glorified used car salesman with a fanatical following.

- And? I bow to Jobs.

- You mean you bow to grab your ankles.

- No, I'm not an Apple fanboy. He's just a good business man who knows how to make good decisions. I'd like to see anyone else be as sucessful.

- "Although Wozniak officially left Apple in 1985 he retains a keen interest in the company and is still on the payroll."
That ironic, I just got back from asking my boss if I could take 20 years of paid time off. Must be nice.

- "It's like consorting with the enemy. We've had this long history of saying that the enemy is the big black-hatted guys, and they kind of represent evil," he explained.
What a retarded thing to say. What is he, a 6-year old???
No wonder Apple lost the desktop wars early on. Its management was populated by imbeciles.
Licensing, licensing, licensing. At least Gates understood its value.

- people, read the post on his website, HE DID NOT SAY THAT, HE DENIES IT, so before we ditch him based on what a reporter say, lets judge him on what HE says..I think it is only fair

- Again one of my comments gets deleted without explanation. I didn't even get a PM or anything. Some of the Neowin mods are out of control.

- I'm guessing that most of you haven't read the actual interview in the globe and mail, here it is:
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/sto...Technology/home
Wozniak took time out from a game of segway polo in New Zealand to tell The Globe and Mail that he is unhappy about the deal, although he understood it from an engineering point of view. "It's like consorting with the enemy. We've had this long history of saying that the enemy is the big black-hatted guys, and they kind of represent evil," he explained.
