>>Diebold software is not made by Microsoft<<

Wrong again:

"Kristoff said the machines run on Windows CE, a specialized, non-consumer version of the Windows operating system. "

Or from a left wing rag:

"The company's explanation is that their machines contain Microsoft software, which they have no right to make available to state election officials. This seems disingenuous, as it is hard to imagine Microsoft suing Diebold for complying with the law. It would hardly be Diebold's fault if it released MS code to a lawful authority on demand; that issue would be something for MS and North Carolina to work out."

I have other sources but you get the point.

Woz hasn't worked at Apple in like 20 years. If you really knew a friend of a friend of a friend of Steve's you'ld know that, and you would have also known that Steve wasn't a software expert.

>>I'm no software expert<<

Along with not being an expert at much else either.
