What, again?<\/p>\n
Look: I’m not an apple fanboy, and never will be. I prefer the horrors of Microsoft over the smug selfrighteousness of Apple all 7 days of the week. <\/p>\n
I like the Imac and OS-x because they are basically PC computers running Unix. the Apple GUI is- frankly- not important. It’s the cleanliness of the OS that is what is important, and Apple had nothing to do with that, it was Bell Labs. <\/p>\n
Bottomline, Jobs made a good living stealing the best ideas of other people (Bell labs, PARC, AT&T, etc) and packaging them in attractive packaging. They had a team of very bright people taking other people’s ideas and making them cool. They polled kids who told them the things they wanted out of computing platforms and developed things like Tablet computing. They made nerds line up to pay handsomely for the privelege of being their beta test group. They sold their concepts like religion and surrounded themselves with true believers. <\/p>\n
I hope Job’s health does not trouble him. His money cannot buy him youth or health, and I’m sure all the money in the world will be small comfort to him. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
