What the Other Steve Is Saying About Apple

Steve Wozniak, who co-founded Apple with Steve Jobs, made some surprising remarks in an interview. Wozniak says that Apple should spin-off its iPod business to a separate division because it distracts Apple from its core business– computers. While acknowledging that the switch to Intel was a necessary evil, Wozniak says: “It’s like consorting with the enemy. We’ve had this long history of saying the enemy is the big black-hatted guys, and they kind of represent evil. We are different, and by being different we’re better. All of a sudden we’re the same in this hardware regard, so it’s a little hard to swallow your words from the past.” Update: Wozniak now denies having made the claims. Just like politics, boys and girls!
