So he had an accident while flying a cesna that he shouldn’t be flying, and suffered a head injury.
Infinite Loop, the book about Apple stuff, said that “Coming out of the semi-coma had been like flipping a reset switch in Woz’s brain. It was as if in his thirty-year old body he had regained the mind he’d had at eighteen before all the computer madness had begun. And when that happened, Woz found he had little interest in engineering or design. Rather, in an odd sort of way, he wanted to start over fresh.”
What plane crash are you talking about here? I’m out of the loop

Thats very interesting. Did he just retire after that or start doing something else?
It was in 1981 and he had to take a break from working at Apple due to his injuries
Oh thats a shame. If this hadn’t occurred would Apple be more friendly to open source these days?
Not a chance. By the time he left Apple in the 80s they had already gone full corpo
Ah ok
