Why didn't The Woz take over apple after Steve Jobs die?

Why didn't The Woz take over apple after Steve Jobs die?
Was it because he wasn't allowed to come back because he didn't fit into the bullshit "Apple image"
Or did The Woz think Apple was a company too faggoty to be saved after Jobs fucked it up?

because he gets paid to do nothing already
>Wozniak remains an employee of Apple and receives a stipend, estimated to be $120,000 per year.[1][30][31] He is also an Apple shareholder.[32] He also maintained a fine acquaintance with Steve Jobs until Jobs' death in October 2011,[33] although, in 2006, Wozniak stated that he and Jobs were not as close as they used to be.

The Woz has ascended to a higher plane and doesn't need that bullshit. Could you imagine if Woz made the next iPhone? It would probably have an sdcard slot, have a removable battery and USB ports.

woz is smart but he would run apple into the ground, dude knows next to nothing about being able to predict the flow of consumer interests

Because Jobs fucked Apple beyond fixing and it's easier just to drain a company by doing fuck all all day than being the face of a company your friend ruined with his faggotry

Literally who? he just made 2 old af computers that basically didn't change anything. Apple needs innovation, like in Lisa, Macintosh, iPhone, etc

weak b8

why would he care?! hes old ... hes filthy rich

only psychopaths wage slaves as billionaires

Jobs just had the face and charisma to sell Apple computers to shops
He tried making his own computer but ended up having Bill Gates helping him which in turn stole from to make the basis of Windows 1.0
Then when it was actually released it was way more expensive than a IIGS but less powerful

Woz was a fucking degenerate nerd with no idea how to run a business.

First off, the only contribution from Woz was Apple I and Apple II. After that he had nothing to do with Apple.

Matter of fact, Jobs was nice enough to keep him on the payroll even after he was ousted, when Jobs came back he still had Woz on the payroll as Employee #2.

Woz is a brilliant engineer, but not the leader/visionary sort.

Woz is a geek technologist, not a business man aka liar.

it was released before IIgs tho

Jobs also was a great commander

Presumably the new execs realized he wasn't very good for the future of Apple either. The breed of user his systems pandered to was either dying off or migrating to better platforms, there was no future for Woz hardware.

His original vision for the Macintosh may have been close-minded but it sure as fuck didn't fuck the company, it was the only thing that stood a chance of saving it from the PC onslaught that left no place for primitive garbage like the Apple II.

>Then when it was actually released it was way more expensive than a IIGS but less powerful
The IIgs wasn't due for for another two years by that time, and it was outclassed in many respects by the Macintosh II a few months later anyway.

Woz is living proof that intellect and creativity is meaningless. If you can steal great ideas and market them effectively, you can take all the credit and become a legend.

Apple would not exist if Woz did not help Jobs with the earlier versions of Apple system. Jobs can't code for shit and has no idea about electrical engineering.

He prints his own money. Why would he work when he can do that?

He doesn't actually print them he orders uncut sheets of $2 bills from the Mint and takes them to someone (a printer) who cuts them out into 1x4 sheets and add perforations to them, and then binds them together and puts them in a pad. The bills are actually completely legit but they look suspicious because of how they're presented and because $2 bills are uncommon so not everyone is familiar with them. Woz likes to pull pranks on people.

Correction, he orders them from the Treasury not the Mint

Because he's an engineer, not an executive. Apple isn't the type of company that would pt an engineer in the CEO spot.

>intellect and creativity
He just glued terminal logic into a 6502 SBC and sold it cheaply, he was definitely key to the beginning of Apple but Sup Forums gives him far more credit than he really deserves. He didn't invent anything special either.

woz wanted nothing to do with building modern computers and their systems?

He was too busy dancing on that faggots grave sing "ding dong the bitch is dead"

He has stated that he doesn't like the direction the company went, he owns his own company, and he is too busy working here: primarydata.com/company/
