Wozniak

Other Apple Steve

Wozniak is a Polish surname meaning "son of a carter" (one who drives wagons).

Steve Wozniak, co-founder of Apple Computer with Steve Jobs, made the name widely recognizable—he's often called simply "Woz." The name appears occasionally as shorthand for technical genius or the quieter partner in a famous duo: Every Jobs needs a Wozniak.
