People listen to Woz because he's smart.


I'm just pointing out that being a critic is easy compared to being a builder.


Interesting choice of words, since Woz is famous for being an amazing builder, and Jobs for being basically an excellent critic.


Well, Woz stopped building things a long time ago.


I guess the keyword is "listen to" and not "agree with" or "follow". While most smart people are worth listening to, most may not be worth following (either because they're evil or narrowly focused or some other reason).
