Woz Joins Axiotron

El Segundo-based Axiotron, a manufacturer of table computers running Apple's Macintosh OS, said Thursday that it has added Steve Wozniak to the firm's board of advisors. Axiotron's tablet PC takes existing Macintosh computers and converts them into a tablet, based on Apple's MacBook systems. Axiotron is angel backed by the Tech Coast Angels, and was a winner of the Tech Coast Angels' Fast Pitch in 2007. The firm allows users to order pen-based, tablet PCs based on Apple's MacBook, or allows users to convert their existing MacBooks into tablet form. Steve Wozniak is the co-founder of Apple.
