Who Really is the "Director" of Dashboard?

Posted by pudge on from the good-question dept.

MacManX writes "Does the director of Apple's upcoming Mac OS X feature, Dashboard, have something to hide? Or does he wish to remain hidden? Or are we just reading into this way too much? Rick has an excellent observation over at MacMerc. The evidence will astound you."

    just because they used a fake name in there instead of using steve's name in there, there's a deeper meaning behind it.

    people just seem to want to always find hidden meanings that, most times, aren't there at all.

      It could always be one of those things known as a 'joke', too.

      After all, the calculator in the video demonstration has '1.337' on it!

    Didn't Apple along with a bunch of other software corporations stop putting credits in their software a few years ago, to help prevent large competitors in or around Redmond from paying whatever it took to make ridiculously generous offers for those employees to work for them? Wouldn't it be prudent (if that is their policy) to avoid trumpeting all those people's names as well? What if this person didn't turn in the NDA yet?
