    On a human level, I admire Woz because he's a good guy.
    And...
    *Chuck Peddle for making things that made everything else possible.
    *Clive Sinclair for making the best looking computers in the world.

    I admire Bill Gates. He didn't even completed studies, yet built world's largest software company and became the world's richest man.

    The person who tops my list is Steve Jobs, the founder of Apple...

    It is sad that he is no more.

    Clive Sinclair because I loved his ZX Spectrum, it was my first computer.

    Richard Stallman for his GNU open source software project.

    I'm not sure I'd classify Richard Stallman as an entrepreneur. He's obviously done great things for the free software movement, being one of the pioneers, but an entrepreneur by definition makes money from his ideas.
