MacDailyNews - Where Mac news comes first

USA. Billionaire. Liability.
That person is now probably in Rehab, claiming spinal paralysis, just lost their home because of theinjury, and is seeking 20 bizillion dollars.

"I like to throw my mallet to block shots!"

What else is there left to do after you've changed the world?

what's next? images and videos of WOZ pooping in his toilet? Like we freaking care and like this news relate to the name of this website.

Lazy Americans.

Woz, get off your crutch and loose your fat by moving your butt on your own power.

MW - growing ... fat

Woz playing Segway polo (and bonking pedestrian on head)

And this is Mac news because... ??

Woz is like a Beatle. Having a few hits 30+ years ago doesn't make you relevant today. Hell Woz was an Apple I & II guy; did he even have anything to do with the Mac?

news??

If you don't think it's relevant, or don't want to waste your time with it, or don't care.......... Then don't click on the link!!!!

Magic Word: writing... writing about links that you don't care about!

This guy should be a something that requires Pedaling.

Woz was.

Having read all those Enderle articles MDN has had all the smarts sucked from their brains. This post is best characterized as being irrelevant, pointless, uninteresting, and blatanly sycophantic. Thanks for ruining my morning repast, MDN.

Uhhhh

CNET has described Segway Polo as the worst new tech sport

Well its Saturday and and we had to dig up something... So we dug up something from April 2006.

"This guy should be a something that requires Pedaling."

Yeah, real clever remark there. What something should he be?

This isn't really news since it was posted in April. At least it's from this year. This falls into the historical reference.

Kind of like Condoleeza Rice and her "historical" intelligence report: Ben Laden determined to attack the United States. It was news - now it's not.

Yep, looks like Woz should be doing a couple of laps w/o a Segway.... that's for sure....

MW: RUNNING ( no joke! )

who gives a fuck?

woz needs to get a job.

Ummmm! That's not 'bonking' as I know it!

Leo

This is old stuff... heck months old!

Yeah. Woz, get a bicycle or something and lose the extra weight. The Steve is in great shape. You look like crap. Get it together man!

Recently while doing repairs on a small adventure-class cruise ship, the captain told me Woz is gay and used to book multiple rooms on one of the vessels, one filled with computers and several rooms for.....um, friends.

"Woz was."

Sorry, but Woz IS and WILL BE. YOUR name will not be in the history books for ages to come - HIS WILL BE. YOU will be forgotten - HE WILL NOT. Woz made a MONUMENTAL contribution and fundamental change to the world as we know it. What he does now with his time and money is his choice - Woz is a good guy. Quit knockin' him.

LONG LIVE WOZ! (and the spirit of innovation for innovation's sake - not profit. That will be known as part of his legacy)

Small point: I believe people in the U.K. have a slightly different interpretation of "bonking"

Lordy, Woz is a heart attack waiting to happen :(
Lighten up people; this may not be Mac related but Jobs had input in the creation of the Segway.

Woz is gay! Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Woz is gay!

Well, he does use a Mac.

I'm sure he'll thank you for outing him, Dumb Blonde.

Are all dumb blondes female and straight?

Dumb Blonde

one filled with computers and several rooms for.....um, friends.,

Ever hear of a computer geek cruise? Not everyone on a cruise is there to bang each other.

Steve is married and has three kids from his second wife.

Of course sometimes people change sexual orientation as those hormones start to change.

Woz made a MONUMENTAL contribution and fundamental change to the world as we know it.

A cheap plywood-case computer?

A long-forgotten and decades-obsolete floppy disk controller?

Woz will fade into history's footnotes, like so many pioneers in countless other industries.

And speaking of footnotes, I still don't know WTF this has to do with the Mac.
This site had better change to http://www.dailynews.com if there's nothing even remotely Mac-related to run.

Yo, channel Z,

yea I've heard of geek cruises but that's not this. This was high end adventure cruising and the Woz took them regularly and brought along a mountain of computer gear. The captain was quite emphatic. The whole topic came up as he was explaining about a lot of rich people who could have bought the ship but chose to ride instead and be catered to.

Not that gay is bad, I like chicks!

In all the Woz news I'd never heard mention of his orientation.

Why are so many people getting so cinical, rude and just plain mean spirited on this site??? 2 years ago there wasn't a fraction of the a__holes there are now. Is this who we are or is it just a sign of the times?

hm.. dont let ballmer join the segway polo team. that'd be one expensive chair when he loses.

Don't bash Woz. How do you think the development of the Mac was funded? The Apple ][ sold well into the '80s. It was the world's first personal computer, designed by Woz, of course.

Now it would have been been nice if he had stayed at Apple, but after his departure he became an educator and has contributed a lot to education.

Mo,

It's the Micro$oft trolls. They have absolutely nothing to say about all the MS delayed products on their sites. So they get bored and come here.

Abe, Woz wasn't involved in the first personal computer.

Xerox PARC's Alto and IBM's APL computer were both around in the early 70's.

Dave

Tally one more for readers not giving 2 flying gazoos about Woz and his stupid polo games. I respect his achievements but freak this retirement pastime reporting.

@Debunk:

"A cheap plywood-case computer?

---> Uhhhh, I think you mean the Apple I. Not the *first*, but a *complete* system that totally popularized personal computing. No Apple I, No Mac in all probability. The Apple ][ series was still accounting for most of Apple's revenue well after the intro of the Mac.

A long-forgotten and decades-obsolete floppy disk controller?

---> Still being talked about *today* as a feat of engineering genius of it's day - Used 1/4-1/5th the amount of chips of floppy controllers of it's time.

Woz will fade into history's footnotes, like so many pioneers in countless other industries.

---> If I am not mistaken, Woz has his own listing in the Encyclopaedia Britannica (either under his name or Apple Computer). I couldn't find my name.

You have to look at his contributions *in the context of the time-frame in history that they happened*. This was amazing stuff in the late '70s/early '80s for *PERSONAL COMPUTING*. I am fortunate to be old enough to remember the impact of these things. You may be old enough too - but you need to see it *in context*.

Everybody that posted here must be from generation Whine. I've never seen such a collection of little bitches than I just saw reading this thread. One of them said for Woz to "get a life". This was posted by someone who has nothing better to do than post a disrespectful comment on this thread. It doesn't get any more pathetic than that.
