Wozniak and a Fledgling Woz

Stephen Wozniak, co-founder of Apple Computer (AAPL ), is back in the
startup game. After more than a decade on the sidelines, Wozniak has
unveiled a new venture, dubbed "Wheels of Zeus" based on his own nickname,
"Woz." The Silicon Valley fledgling, which will focus on developing new
wireless technologies for the consumer market, raised $6 million from
venture capitalists. Wozniak says he hasn't put up any of his own cash so
that he will be a more disciplined manager. "When my own money goes into
something, I start to become careless," says Wozniak, who will serve as CEO
of the startup.
