Best Answer

In 1981 Steve Wozniak (often known as Woz) crashed his light aircraft so he took time off from Apple to recover, get married and return to university. In 1983 he returned to Apple working as an engineer rather than an executive. He completed his degree in 1986 and then left Apple on February 6, 1987. He remains an employee of Apple and receives a salary from them although no longer working for them.

After leaving Apple Wozniak spent some time teaching fifth grade students, set up a company that produced the first universal audio/video remote control. He has also formed companies, or worked for existing companies, to develop GPS products and mobile phone devices. In 2006 Wozniak set up Acquicor Technology which acquires small technology companies with interesting ideas and helps them develop their products. In 2009 he joined Fusion-io a data storage company as their chief scientist. He also provides money and technical support for the computer systems in his local schools. He has appeared on several TV shows and competed in the 2009 show Dancing with the Stars.

He wrote a book called "iWoz: From Computer Geek to Cult Icon: How I Invented the Personal Computer, Co-Founded Apple, and Had Fun Doing It" about his life which was published in 2006.
