Woz is sometimes referred to as "Woz the Whiz." He serves as the ship's hacker and maintains its software. He and Jobs were originally stowaways aboard the Gekko, but they were invited to stay due to their technical skills. He and Jobs tend to argue over the best way to configure the Gekko's systems, since Woz insists on rewriting the control systems to compensate for every modification Jobs makes, while Jobs asserts that the software is fully capable of supporting the changes. His hippy attitude and grunge attire stand in sharp contrast to Jobs, yet they seem to maintain a strong friendship anyway. He is modeled after Steve Wozniak (hence, "Woz"), another of Apple's co-founders.
