From what I understand, he was somewhat of a jerk when dealing with subordinates. I also understand he wasn’t above being dishonest in his business dealings. The coup de grace- denying paternity of one of his kids- even claiming he was sterile. I wonder if the “Mythbusters” will mention this?
Yes, he could be... and he thought he was sterile. But two years later he found he was not and claimed her... In fact the LISA computer is named for her. There were a few early incidents where he was less than honest with Woz... but later he has been extremely honest in his dealings, always giving credit where it was due. In the case of Wozniak, the $600 Atari deal was more than made up by the fact that he made Woz a multimillionaire hundreds of times over. Woz was going to be happy with an "atta boy" from the members of the "Home Brew Computer Club" for making the Apple II. Steve turned it into the most valuable corporation in the world.
