Are commercial pressures catching up with one of our most inventive movie companies?"

    Steve Jobs becoming majority share holder of Disney

    No, no, no! He is the *largest* (single) shareholder! A stake of around 7% from what I last heard...a majority shareholder would have > 50%+1!

    How can you fudge numbers up like that - this is slashdot dammit!
