Woz built the Apple I by himself.
Without Woz, I'm not sure what Steve Jobs would have done. Probably nothing important. Steve Jobs was definitely a very talented man, but he was also in the right place at the right time.
If Apple didn't exist, we would still have computers and laptops. We would still have smartphones in 2017. I think everyone would just be using Android (or something similar), and no-one would know what they were missing.
- edblarney 10y ago"Without Woz, I'm not sure what Steve Jobs would have done. Probably nothing important" Do you think that Woz is unique? That Jobs wouldn't have found another tech guy to build some other whiz-bang thing with him?
- luckystartup 10y agoNo, I just think the whole situation is very unique. Jobs wasn't really looking for a tech guy from the very beginning. He was introduced to Woz and they ended up building something together. So he stumbled into it, just like any entrepreneur stumbles into their ideas. There's also nothing particularly special about the founders of Dropbox, Google, Amazon, Microsoft, or Facebook. These were all built by smart hard-working people, but they just happened to have the right idea at the right time. I don't think Jobs and Woz are any different. This is all just conjecture, and there's no way of knowing what Steve Jobs would have done if his life had been slightly different. We know that he founded NeXT Computer after leaving Apple, but it's hard to imagine him founding that company if he was never involved with computers.
