Stephen Gary "Woz" Wozniak (born August 11, 1950 in San Jose, California) is an American computer engineer who founded Apple Computer (now Apple Inc.) with Steve Jobs. His inventions and machines are credited with contributing significantly to the personal computer revolution of the 1970s. Wozniak created the Apple I and Apple II computers in the mid-1970s. The Apple II gained much popularity, eventually becoming one of the best selling personal computers of the 1970s and early 1980s. Wozniak was also a contestant on ABC's 8th season of Dancing with the Stars. Wozniak has several nicknames, including "The Woz", "Wonderful Wizard of Woz" and "iWoz" (a reference to the ubiquitous naming scheme for Apple products). "WoZ" (short for "Wheels of Zeus") is also the name of a company Wozniak founded. He is sometimes known as the "Other Steve" of Apple Computer, the better known Steve being co-founder Steve Jobs. He is of Polish descent.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Wozniak

Steve Wozniak (Apple) at the Creativity World Forum 2008
I am a Mac user and fan, but uses both Windows PC's (at work) and Apple Macintosh at home. Both computers have benefits and less points.
THe design of Mac is more beautiful and esthetic, but the software for Windows PC's is cheaper!
Creative people like Mac's because mac's were the first computers which worked with programs like Qark Xpress, the graphical design and Desk Top Publishing Program.
