Here is a quote from Woz just this year...

I am listening to Woz on CNN right now and he is comparing him to Martin Luther King etc... Nothing but praise and love for Steve.

Did you expect him to blast Jobs on the day he died? I don't know (and don't care) if they were friends or enemies, but I imagine Steve W.'s response would be similar either way.

You know what he has done for society? Create more technology or at least market more technology to distract the world from what really goes on. **** that. Apple is overpriced and overrated, as is most technology. I hope his family is doing well and can get over the loss but I personally don't care about the guy, Bill Gates can **** off too.

Without Jobs and Gates, we'd still be watching softcore porn through squiggly lines.

No way, HD would have come around at some point and HBO and cinemax would have gotten a huge contract to do hardcore. im in no way saying I don't enjoy my computer or technology, but I can go long periods of time without it. Hell I'd even go as far as saying I would be fine without a computer.

Woz seems to have made conflicting statements on the matter, as my quote from Woz was taken from this year as well.

**Shogun** · 10-05-2011, 09:18 PM

Woz obviously has D.I.D

yeah, it depends on when you catch him... but if you have followed him as much as I have... it's pretty clear they weren't friends as most people would define the word.

The interesting thing here isn't the fact that Jobs died, it's that Apple fanbois are so damned annoying that people rejoice in the death of the guy who ran the company.

**DaFace** · 10-05-2011, 09:32 PM

Kind of a cool article about him. It's pretty rosy, but it offers an interesting glimpse into bits of his personality.

The way Austin described their relationship I wasn't expecting him to say he was like Martin Luther King or John Lennon

I'm an avid user of Apple products and I could care less...you're right though, the fanboys on Twitter are acting like Jesus died or something.

Woz is an extremely nice guy.. very forgiving and generous... doesn't surprise me at all.
