Amelio, Raskin, Gassée On What Apple Means

Posted by timothy on from the great-fruit-really-tart dept.

John Paczkowski writes: "SiliconValley.com is currently hosting the third in its series of online Roundtable discussions. Our topic is 'Does Apple Matter?' and as you might imagine conversation has been quite spirited. Among our guests: Jean-Louis Gassée -- chairman and CEO of Be and former head of head of product development at Apple, former Apple chairman and CEO Gil Amelio, former Macintosh project manager Jef Raskin, and Mark Gonzales, a former senior Apple product manager who worked on the company's 'Star Trek' project. You'll find the introduction to the event here and the discussion itself here."

    :;As Raplh JewHater Nader bleats on, a dark, cold figure appears from the murk of the Internet... a figure shroudled in Black... mist swirls about his feet. He reaches out, slowly, carefully so as not to alert Nader to his presence... he steps forward....

    A scream explodes outward, a scream to freeze the blood, to still the heart, to make bowels loosen and make the strong even piss their pants. A scream like one ripped from hell before the gates shut, like soul being torn loose and cast into the abyss.... a scream that blows out Nader's eardrums...

    "WWWWWWEEEEEDDDDDDDDDGGGGGGYYYYYYYY!!!!

    Nader screeches as his undies are reefed up violently and then tied around his neck! The smell begins to make him choke as his brain straves for oxygen, his own undies strangling him!::

    * Bows *

    Death by a Force Wedgy. No more than Nader deserved.

    Who is he(she?) trolling for? We all know everyone at Slashdot browses with the nightly build of Mozilla, and has never even touched anything that is not OSS right? Let the boys play!

    P.S. See you in MetaMod

  8. GEM by RGRistroph · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    I was digging through years of accumulated floppies, sorting out which ones looked cool enough to see if they could still be read and which ones would go in the blank floppy bucket, and I found a two-diskette installation of GEM.

    GEM is the windowing software mentioned in the star trek project link.

    Just in case my floppies don't work, does anyone know if you can still find GEM on the web anywhere ?
