Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak has taken a full time gig as Chief Scientist at Utah-based startup hardware manufacturer Fusion-io, the New York Times is reporting. The company claims to cut the time required to process large amounts of data from days to minutes. Fusion-io launched at the DEMO Fall conference in 2007.
