i'm sure after the deal was inked stebe called woz and told him he just asparagus pissed all over the ghoul that claims it is hp.

lol without steve, woz would've kept on working at HP right up until he got shitcanned in one of carly fiorina's mass layoffs.

so LOL that woz gets more and more bitter about steve and apple as time goes on.
