The episode reveals how Wozniak single-handedly designed Apple’s first computers while working nights at his apartment, using constraints and limitations as creative advantages rather than obstacles. Unlike typical Silicon Valley success stories, Wozniak’s approach was radically different. After Apple’s IPO made him worth $88 million, he sold his shares at below-market prices to colleagues who had been excluded from the stock program.
