He didn't make the transition to executive management like most big tech founder did.

Also the first iPhone was released 30 years after the Apple 1, that's several generations in terms of technological advancement. Bill and Paul were no longer at Microsoft 30 years after the first Windows release. Google is barely 20 years old.

'Most'? Woz is actually pretty lucky, he's appreciated, people know what he did, and he's fairly wealthy. When it comes to successful Hands and Faces, the Hands more often end up like Kildall or one of an even more anonymous faceless team that did all the work but will never be known.

Yes, Woz is one of my all times favourites.
