Published: May 4, 2020, 8 a.m.

b'Steve Wozniak (aka Woz) has had a tremendous effect on the world of hardware. Season 4 features many of the devices he\\u2019s designed, built, worked on, and been inspired by. But for Woz, what\\u2019s most important isn\\u2019t necessarily the devices he\\u2019s created\\u2014it\\u2019s how he built them. \\n\\nWoz recounts how his early tinkering led to a lifelong passion for engineering. He started learning about computers on a GE 225 in high school. Soon enough, he was designing improvements to computers he wanted to buy\\u2014eventually defining his mantra for simplicity in design. That philosophy helped him finish the Apple I after seeing the Altair 8800 at the Homebrew Computer Club, and to create the floppy drive for the Apple II. But what he\\u2019s proudest of these days is the recognition for his engineering accomplishments\\u2014and sharing them with the world.'
