Back in the days, Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs were the best friends in the world. The two computer geeks invented the personal computer, founded Apple Computer, and they had lot of fun doing it. Unfortunately, their friendship ended when Wozniak left Apple. So I’m not surprised to learn that Jobs wouldn’t bite when he was asked to write the intro of Wozniak’s autobiography, “iWoz.”

“We wanted him to do a foreword, but he declined,” Wozniak tells Jacob Bernstein this week in WWDScoop, the new magazine from Women’s Wear Daily. “He felt the book sort of portrayed me as a good guy and him as an a-hole.” Among other anti-Jobs anecdotes, Wozniak recalls in the book that when he invented a universal remote control and sent it to Jobs, he threw it against a wall, stuck it in a box, and mailed it back. “Steve had a fit about it,” Wozniak tells Bernstein. “He was under the impression that I’d left Apple in a very negative mode.”

What Wozniak doesn’t know is that Jobs mailed the remote control back because it didn’t work and he thought it was sent by somebody else. Some guy called Bill Gates was constantly harassing Steve Jobs by sending him shitty electronic products he had built, because he wanted to seduce him and become his best friend. Jobs thought it was this guy because he couldn’t imagine that the Wizard of Woz could create a bad electronic device. Later the stalking nerd created a company called Microsoft. That guy is the one to blame for everything.
