While a student in McCollum's class, Jobs became friends with a graduate who was the teacher's all-time favorite and a school legend for his wizardry in the class. Stephen Wozniak, whose younger brother had been on a swim team with Jobs, was almost five years older than Jobs and far more knowledgeable about electronics. But emotionally and socially he was still a high school geek. Like Jobs, Wozniak learned a lot at his father's knee. But their lessons were different. Paul Jobs was a high school dropout who, when fixing up cars, knew how to turn a tidy profit by striking the right deal on parts. Francis Wozniak, known as Jerry, was a brilliant engineering graduate from Cal Tech, where he had quarterbacked the football team, who became a rocket scientist at Lockheed. He exalted engineering and looked down on those in business, marketing, and sales. "I remember him telling me that engineering was the highest level of importance you could reach in the world," Steve Wozniak later recalled. “It takes society to a new level."
在麦克勒姆班上的时候,乔布斯碰巧与一个本校的毕业生成了朋友,此人就是斯蒂芬•沃兹尼亚克。沃兹尼亚克一直是老师最喜欢的学生,并因为在班上展现出的杰出才能而成为全校的传奇人物。他的弟弟曾经和乔布斯一起参加过游泳队,而他本人比乔布斯大了将近5岁,对电子学的了解也远超乔布斯。但从情商以及社交方面的能力来说,他依然是个高中生极客。 和乔布斯一样,沃兹尼亚克也从父亲那里学到了很多。但两人学到的东西是不同的。乔布斯的父亲是个高中辍学生,他在修理汽车的过程中学会了如何通过买卖零部件赚取可观的利润;而人称“杰里”的沃兹尼亚克的父亲弗朗西斯•沃兹尼亚克,是加州理工学院工程系的杰出毕业生,还是校橄榄球队四分卫,他十分崇尚工程学并且瞧不起那些从事商业、市场或销售的人。他后来成为了洛克希德公司的火箭专家,设计导弹制导系统。“我记得他告诉我,工程学是世界上最重要的,”史蒂夫•沃兹尼亚克后来回忆说,“工程学将社会带入了一个新的层级。”
