I will never forget when he was told years later in an interview that an Atari job Steve Jobs sent his way to code Breakout was for $700, and split it 50/50. Woz was told the real amount was $5k with a $5k bonus, and he got 350 for it. He cried. He thought they were best friends, and knew in that moment his friend wasn't real. It amazes me he didn't piss on Job's grave.

that sounds exactly like something Jobs would have done. He was a pretty gross person.

He left a meeting to soak his feet in a toilet and didn't believe in taking baths or showers. I wonder if his skin cells went towards science.
