I don't think my post downplayed Woz's contributions. No one has any doubt that Woz is a very bright individual. What I'm saying is that being smart about engineering does not necessarily translate over to being smart about business. And that's certainly true about Woz. Like most geeks, he's an idealist: he talks about what he wishes the world to be like without thinking about or understanding what that would mean for the company that employs him.
