He told some about his decision to leave Apple and start a new venture-company with several other "Exes", planning to join computers and Video-equipment into a totally new product-line. Today's newspapers repeated and confirmed the story. It's my understanding that Woz was not involved with Macintosh (even though I've heard the disk drive attributed/blamed to him), so there is no reason to wonder about an exodus from "a sinking ship", however, I would assume that some Apple stock will be sold to finance this new company. Does anyone know if Woz had any left-over after his concert-disasters? [don't you love my rumour-mill ??? ] one other interesting feature of the OverNight interview with Woz was that both this and last year's Superbowl TV-ad were featured. (so you missed it again ... ) -------
