    i believe it was steve who used the os x in his neXt products and brought it to apple upon his return. if you read the article in rolling stone, he had a very interesting and tortured life. much like john lennon. perhaps it helps to drive creativity, or perhaps it was the lsd. :)

    IMHO, Jobs' genius lies in simultaneously making the complex simple and the simple complex.

    Close enough. OS X is based on the neXt system.

    She doesn't have the market cornered on going pantyless :p ... just ask Lindsay Lohan, but you'll have to do so in jail as that's where she currently is.

    Apparently she does not have to report to jail until November 9. Too bad the really big criminals, like the ones who created the credit default swap catastrophe, or the corrupt lawmakers who exempted CDOs from regulatory control, are not in jail.

    you have to admit, he was the consummate showman. when he asked why everyone wanted to know what the little pocket inside your front jeans pocket was for, and then pulled out an ipod? shear genius!

    I generally dislike peddlers of any ilk and I don't personally have any Apple products but I enjoyed his showmanship.
