    Heh, kinda like Slashdot where you get modded away by morons but then later everything you said is proven true. Nobody even remembers what you said earlier, everyone is like "yeah, I had this idea all along".

    Idiots.

  2. My offer stands, Woz by caudron · · Score: 0, Troll

    If you come here and found my multibillion dollar company that skyrockets me into uber fame on your coattails, I promise you...75W adapters...all you could ever want!

    Think about it. It's a good offer.

    P.S. Act now, and I'll even wear those gay turtleneck sweater thingies you seem to like your partners to wear. I'm bending over backwards here, dude!

    You can find a pretty large community of guys who love Apple and the Mac over at MacBuds. Woz has been known to stop in once in a while.

    I have know several execs who are just like Jobs in that they lie and steal from their best friends and workers.

    Don't forget the times that Jobs lied to Woz about how much their got paid...

    Step 3: Hook up with a meglomaniacal business shark with enough charisma to attract a cult following.

    If Woz got over it, you can too.
