I don't get it... Steve raises Apple from the dead, creates a whole new genre of movies (3D animation) and continues to innovate. Woz quit while he was ahead, shouts from the sidelines, and everyone listens to him?
I don't see HIM building anything.
- aston 19y agoWhile it's true that Woz isn't doing much of anything right now, he's at least voicing opinions that are widely held and he represents "the old Apple" (that is, whatever Apple should become).
- pg 19y agoPeople listen to Woz because he's smart.
- cglee 19y agoI guess the keyword is "listen to" and not "agree with" or "follow". While most smart people are worth listening to, most may not be worth following (either because they're evil or narrowly focused or some other reason).
- far33d 19y agoI'm just pointing out that being a critic is easy compared to being a builder.
- abstractbill 19y agoInteresting choice of words, since Woz is famous for being an amazing builder, and Jobs for being basically an excellent critic.
- far33d 19y agoWell, Woz stopped building things a long time ago.
- SirWart 19y agoI think his complaint that Apple has been focusing too much on eye-candy and not enough on usability in Leopard is a pretty legitimate point.
