YEREVAN. – The Apple Corporation co-founder Steve Wozniak, who is on two-day visit in Armenia has already managed to stand out with his subtle humor, broad character, and even scared the hotel staff.  

The famous inventor with iWoz nickname moved with Segway for a long time in Yerevan’s Republic Square surprising the passers-by.

Wozniak said in a meeting with IT representatives that he made tricks with hotel staff and scared them.

“I invented special equipment, which I put in suitcases and when I press, it sounds. I find my suitcases this way. I decided to make jokes with the hotel staff and I switched it on. They thought that it was a bomb,” Wozniak said.

He promised to visit Armenia again as ‘he will stay Armenian partly forever.’

Steve and Janet Wozniaks arrived to Armenia on Thursday. Wozniak will receive the Armenian President’s 2011 Global Award for Outstanding Contribution to Humanity through IT.
