Yesterday, the FCC voted to pass new Net neutrality regulations. Understandably, everyone has an opinion on the outcome (and almost no one is happy). Now Steve Wozniak, one of the most high-profile voices in the tech world, has weighed in with an open letter, published in The Atlantic. The mildly scatter-brained missive calls on the FCC to take action to enshrine Net neutrality as law, and to ...

It's a shame that Steve Wozniak is no longer with Apple. He'd be the perfect foil to Steve Jobs's inscrutable megalomania. He seems affable, self-deprecating and (perhaps most refreshingly) brutally honest. He's never shied away from pointing out what he perceives as flaws in the company he co-founded or its products. And his latest assertion about the iPhone will definitely irk his former ...

Highlights from this morning's other big tech headlines.... In a new Discovery Channel documentary, world-renowned physicist Stephen Hawking reportedly affirms his belief that extraterrestrial life exists, but he also offers a stern warning. Hawking likens the earthly arrival of alien ships to Columbus landing in the Americas -- only replace the influenza and smallpox with lasers and ...

Good news for fans of both humans and machines. Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak (pictured left) told the Wall Street Journal that his friend Steve Jobs (pictured right) seemed "healthy" and "energetic" in a recent telephone conversation between the two. Though they didn't discuss the issue of Jobs' health directly, Woz optimistically said that Apple's CEO "doesn't sound like he's sick." Jobs has ...

Perhaps Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak should have trained a bit harder before joining the cast of 'Dancing With The Stars.' The poor guy, already suffering from a banged-up knee and a broken bone in his left foot, pulled a hamstring during rehearsal this past Friday. This latest mishap is just another in the long list of injuries that have plagued 'Dancing With the Stars' contestants this ...

var digg_url = 'http://digg.com/apple/Woz_dances_like_watching_a_Teletubby_going_mad'; He did it. Steve Wozniak, co-founder of Apple and nerd superhero, just made his debut on Dancing with the Stars. As you'd expect, the surprisingly nimble Woz enjoyed himself without concern of mockery. But as one judge put it, "overall it was a disaster." Hey Woz, you're still a nerd hero to all of us. ...

Wow, Woz... turn down the shirt a little bit buddy. Look, we're used to the Apple co-founder's eccentric ways. He rides a Segway everywhere, carries a metal business card, and has decided to lend his geek cred to the reality TV crap-fest 'Dancing With the Stars.' Now the promo-photos are coming out and we are treated to Mr. Wozniak in all his shiny, French-cuffed, pink-shirted glory. Woz doesn't ...

Yes, your greatest / worst dream has come to fruition: Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak will be featured on the next season of 'Dancing With the Stars.' There's not much we can tell you right now about his upcoming moves, though we will be watching with bated breath, quietly hoping for a double Lindy, the Sugarfoot, and Denise Richards being dipped on a Segway. [Thanks, Ethan] ...

After enjoying a lucrative career after co-founding Apple with Steve Jobs, Steve "The Woz" Wozniak can do whatever he wants. He's dated Kathy Griffin (to each, their own), played on a Segway polo team, and is now starring in a collection of online ads for a clothing company. The commercials are for SCOTTEVEST, which designs clothes with numerous pockets and unique features to incorporate ...

Congratulations to Steve Wozniak, co-founder of Apple Computers, who tied the knot last weekend with his fiancée, who several outlets are making perfectly clear is not, repeat not, Kathy Griffin. The name of Woz's new wife has not been released, but we think she must be a huge dork (we mean that in the best way possible) -- the ceremony was held at SegwayFest 2008. We're sure Woz will hold ...

The iPhone 3G dropped last week to much fanfare and, while the lines weren't as long as they were last year, they were still sizable, and when there are long lines there are almost always line cutters. Nobody likes a cutter, and the sight of someone diving in ahead of everyone else can really raise some ire -- especially when it's Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak. Wozniak (a.k.a. "The Woz") ...

Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak -- aka "Woz" -- is much more than a throbbing brain with a tie. He knows that the quickest way to a girl's heart is to jailbreak her iPhone... on TV. As he tells Ms. Kathy Griffin in the season premiere of 'My Life on the D-List,' "You know, some people would criticize you for not having hacked your iPhone." Certainly not you, Mr. Apple Co-founder? Watch it all go ...

Woz with the hateration! After spending several months with Apple's wonderphone, Apple's co-founder Steve Wozniak has fallen decidedly out of love with the device. "To tell you the truth I was really disappointed when the iPhone was introduced ... half the phones in the AT&T store at the time were 3G phones," Wozniak said at a press conference, according to a Sydney Morning Herald report. ...
