For Apple, quite possibly.

Was going to say definitely, but there are actually some pictures in there with Woz in a tie. Jobs bow tie, though, in those pictures, is definitely a sartorial mark of non-conformity for that era.

This guy in the vest? http://snakkle.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/20....

I don't know about that B&W bowtie pic, but that color pic is from the Apple IIc launch in 1984. Apple IPO'ed in 1980, and was already making over a billion dollars in revenue by 1984. And the bowtie is a bit non-conformist, but Jobs wasn't exactly dressed like a hipster even in 1984: http://everystevejobsvideo.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/St.... And I don't know how non-conformist that bow-tie really is. Here's Justice John Paul Stevens at his Senate confirmation hearing in 1975: http://media.npr.org/assets/news/2010/04/09/stevens1-3a512da....
