Thanks,
All your questions, and more, can be answered at:
http://www.woz.org/ (no kidding!)
He's teaching 5th grade now. He's doing what every great person who
achieves tremendous wealth should, in my humble opinion, be doing: Giving
up the crazy game and going off to enjoy life :) More power to him.
BTW, _definitely_ not on-topic and I apologize for that, but Be is
indeed an OS company, and it's gaining quite a following, although I
don't believe Wozniak has ever had anything to do with them. You may
be thinking of the CEO, Jean-Louis Gassee, who was an... "interesting"
figure at Apple for quite some time. More answers can be had at
http://www.be.com/ (amazingly enough).
