Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak was hospitalized in Mexico City on Wednesday due to a minor stroke, Mexican media outlets reported — as noted by Reuters yesterday. But he seems to be okay.
Wozniak tells ABC that he suffered a minor stroke, but has been released from the hospital and is flying home. The 73-year-old scientist and tech entrepreneur was scheduled to participate in a World Business Forum event in the Mexican capital’s Santa Fe neighborhood.
