    Steve Wozniak, Segway Polo Pioneer, Aims for the Goal

    Here's a photo of Apple Employee #1, Steve Wozniak, as he plays for the Silicon Valley Aftershocks during the Segway Polo World Championships. Woz is one of the most prominent players of this silly and endearing sport. [Christian Science Monitor]

    Steve Wozniak, Car Salesman

    In case you missed the link buried in our retrospective tech gods trivia-fest, here's a glimpse back at Steve Wozniak in 1979, when he moonlit as an enthusiastic Datsun spokesperson. To quote the man himself, "It. Is. Awesome." [YouTube] More »

    When Tech Gods Were Mortal Men

    Anyone who knows tech knows certain names—Gates, Jobs, Woz, Kamen, Stringer—but before they became legends, they were busy doing, well, some curious stuff. Here's a glance at their lives circa 1979: More »

    Apple II: The World Catches On

    Often it's an artist's second book or album that draws the public's attention—so too with Apple's number 2, whose story is excerpted here from Core Memory, photographed by Mark Richards and written by John Alderman. More »

    Woz Says Jobs "Doesn’t Sound Like He’s Sick"

    Steve Wozniak recently talked to his ole buddy and Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, apparently on the phone. Woz told reporters that though he didn't ask specifically about Jobs' condition, Jobs sounded "healthy, energetic"—not sick. That's good news, as Jobs' scheduled return to Apple is imminent. [WSJ]

    Was Steve Wozniak Unfairly Eliminated From Dancing With the Stars?

    One of our more educated readers has chimed in on The Woz's Dancing With the Stars elimination. If he's right, let the Internet masses descend on ABC with the white-hot intensity of a thousand suns. More »

    A Hackintoshed Dell Mini 9, Autographed By Woz

    Would You Buy Steve Wozniak's PowerBook on eBay?

    Looks like Apple Employee #1's old 17", maxed-out PowerBook is for sale on eBay, remarkably devoid of Cheetos fingerprints. But who acquired it from Woz to begin with? The answer might surprise you. More »

    Woz to Dance With The Stars and Denise Richards

    Woz Really Does Everything On His Segway

    The balance, the precision aiming. The man: Woz takes a piss on his Segway. If this is Photoshopped (or the world's most convincing Woz lookalike), there truly is no God. [Macenstein] UPDATE: Woz confirms in the comments! More »

    Apple's First Trade Show Sign, Woz's Toolbox Up For Auction

    Among the valuables that will be up for auction at Alexander Autographs in Stamford, CT on November 6th and 7th are two little gems that may be of some interest to Apple fans with deep pockets. The first item up for grabs is the very first sign Jobs and Wozniak used to promote Apple at trade shows in 1976. The sign also hung outside the company's Cupertino headquarters for several years.

    Woz: iPod to Die Soon

    In an surprisingly frank and fresh exclusive interview with the Daily Telegraph, Steve Wozniak has left us some new gems of wisdom regarding the past, present, and future of Apple. Among his thoughts on Apple's fanboyism, stock overvaluation, upcoming products, and the iPhone limitations, the most surprising is his prediction that the iPod success will die soon, just like the Walkman and transistor radio did: More »

    Manga Jobs and Wozniak Dream Up Apple

    Lisa Katayama at Boing Boing has found a manga gem from the 80s: the story of Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, from the moment Woz started to get interested in gadgets until the Apple II was created and launched. Into space apparently. Truth is that I don't have a clue of Japanese, so that's probably why I find it funny, thinking about what the hell they are saying, and why on Earth there's an space octopus involved in this whole thing—I just like to imagine that's related to Jobs' experiences with LSD.

    Hacker Rips Off $12,000 in Calls Using Homeland "Security" Phone System

    Knowing that the government can keep us safe against evil dildos and penis pumpers, I don't really give much importance to the fact that a guy got into the U.S. Homeland Security Department phone system to make more than 400 calls to his buddies in friendly countries like Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen. According to security consultant John Jackson, the hacking was very low-tech and old school, which probably would make Steve "Blue Box" Wozniak proud, but it was an embarrassment for the agency: More »

    UPDATE: Steve Wozniak (With Posse) Has Space Saved In Line at San Jose iPhone 3G Launch

    Important News! Kathy Griffin Never Slept With Steve Wozniak

    Woz Wants YOU to Play Segway Polo

    We tuned in for Woz's grand Segway polo match today. Aside from the simultaneously eerie and warm feeling we got from Steve Wozniak's shirt bearing a striking resemblance to our old high school's band booster wear, we weren't able to enjoy much of the very short broadcast of the match. In fact, we have no idea who won, cried, made out with Kathy Griffen or anything. More »

    Epcot Ride Reopens With Steve...err...We Think It's Woz

    Last week we ran a rumor that Epcot's new Spaceship Earth ride had screwed Woz, and that Steve Jobs alone would be immortalized in Disney animatronics. Now that the ride has opened to select guests, we've confirmed that the ride does indeed feature a long-haired, scruffy man tinkering away at a computer in a garage. But we're not sure which Steve he is. And the narration is little help, only mentioning "the late 70s" and a "garage in California," so it's ultimately inconclusive. More »

    Steve Jobs to be Featured in Epcot Without Woz?

    Epcot's SpaceShip Earth ride was a little dated, so it's been undergoing a major overhaul. And according to Distant Creations blog, a certain Apple celebrity will be making an appearance. Tinkering on a computer in his garage, the bearded "Jesus version" Jobs will be creating an early prototype Apple computer...alone. More »

    Woz Supports iPhone Rebels, Stings Jobs

    You think that Steve Wozniak (sexy hunk on left) has already filled as much of your techie heart as humanly possible, and then he starts dating Kathy Griffin and you kind of don't know how that makes you feel because you were never much of a fan, and then he blesses iPhone unlockers everywhere with his glorious, sweaty Woz hands.
    From a business point of view, Apple owns what they have done. They have a right to lock it. But I am really for the unlockers, the rebels trying to make it free.
    We're liking this...rebels. More »

    Wozthy Engagement See-Saw: Kathy and Woz NOT Engaged?

    These two are milking all this "did they, didn't they" press for all it's worth, but apparently the latest status is that Woz and Kathy G. aren't engaged. Is this true, or is this just one of her wonderful "jokes" that propelled her into the Z-list along with Pauly Shore and Stephen Baldwin? [E!]

    Woz and Kathy Griffin Exhibit Courting Rituals on Emmy Red Carpet

    First it was a rumor, then it was a smashed rumor, later on it was a rekindled, adjusted rumor, and now it's just awkward. Yes, Woz and Kathy Griffin went to the Emmys together last night, although why either of them were invited isn't exactly clear. I don't think I can continue writing this post without it dissolving into me sounding like a high school bully making fun of dorky couples at the prom, so I'll just leave you with the photos. More »

    PodBrix to Release Young Woz and Jobs Playset Made of LEGO

    You'd better hurry up and get in line, because the limited-edition Young Woz and Jobs Playset is going on sale in just two days. Tomy will be cranking out this little PodBrix set made out of modified LEGO, featuring the young Steve Jobs and his Apple cofounder Steve Wozniak working in Steve's parents' garage to create one of the first Apple computers. It looks like they're well on their way toward Appledom in this set, though, because that looks more like an Apple II than that primitive first PC created by the dynamic duo. More »

    Woz and Kathy Griffin NOTMAYBE Hooked Up?

    [UPDATE: I took a pass, noting inconsistencies. - B.L.]Turns out the rumor of Kathy Griffin fondling Woz's apples were a bit off, according to Adario Strange. He's proudly skeptical of the whole thing, pointing to a Page Six post that he claims says the two have never met. But reading the Page Six page actually says the contrary. Adario, which is it?

    Woz is Out of the Loop at Apple, and He Likes it That Way

    In the final installment of our interview with Apple co-founder/inventor of the personal computer Steve Wozniak, he lets us know some details of his "outsider" status at Apple and why he likes it that way. Does he have all the inside scoops before anyone else? Nope. Does he get the first prototypes of each new product? Nope. But that's just the way he wants it. Woz is a man of the people. More »

    Woz's Unique Phone Plus His Love of 3G and GCal

    Woz is back, this time to dish on phones. What does he like in phones? What makes a phone worth owning? What phone does he use on a day-to-day basis? Interestingly enough, he's a big fan of 3G phones that are fast enough to stream video. I guess you didn't get the memo, Woz: The iPhone is sorely lacking in the 3G department. More »

    Woz Explains Apple Fanboyism

    Here's another clip from my interview with Steve Wozniak yesterday. This time, he's talking about what about Apple makes people so fanatical. Sure, I could have asked Blam, but he looks so cute sleeping in his Apple pajamas that I couldn't bear to wake him up. Anyways, Woz is a greater authority on the subject as he receives the love of fanboys rather than just being one himself. More »
