For several years, Woz was the go-to guy on Apple peripheral cards.
IIRC, he caused a complete redesign of the original Mouse card to
make it much simpler.  So by that time, he was consulting on rather
than actually designing some cards.


Andy Hertzfeld's Folklore site has a different story on the Apple Mouse
card:

Interesting--as are most of Andy's stories!

My story came from a Woz interview IIRC.  The two stories are not
incompatible, since Woz may have been involved after the card
was redesigned by the Apple II group.
