That seems like it's vacuously true: you can only do a thing for the first time once. Wozniak helped invent a whole new mode of human life: the personal computer. You can't revolutionize the computer industry in your back yard because all of the things that are easy to do, have already been done. I have no idea what the next "Apple Personal Computer" might be, the one that utterly changes the way people interact with the world. Maybe it'll be gene editing, or a new kind of entertainment via direct brain stimulation. Maybe those are waiting for their own Woz to put a bunch of other innocuous advances together into something radical, and grow it into the next Big Tech before the existing Big Tech gets there. It happens; that's how Google pushed Yahoo and Altavista out of the way, and Facebook dispatched Myspace. We don't need somebody to found Apple again. We need something that does for us what Apple did for us.
