Steve Jobs' Yacht Revealed
schwit1 writes "Venus, the incredible luxury yacht Steve Jobs had been designing up until his death a little over a year ago, seems to have made its first appearance as a finished product in the city of Aalsmeer in the Netherlands. Unsurprisingly, its design is breathtaking. Reportedly designed in a joint effort between Jobs himself and Philippe Starck, the stunning ship first showed up on the blog One More Thing, which posted some stills as well as a few other details. The ship is about 230 to 260 feet long, for instance, and made entirely of aluminum, which makes it particularly light. And if you had any doubt this is Steve Jobs' yacht, there are seven 27-inch iMacs in the wheelhouse. According to One More Thing's sources, the Jobs family will be present for the yacht's christening ceremony proper, thought it's unknown whether or not they intend to use it, or what its ultimate fate may be. Regardless of what may happen to her, she sure is a beauty. It's certainly a shame Steve Jobs never got the chance to see her finished."
It looks like complete shit, just like everything that Steve Jobs or Apple has touched.
I'm glad that worthless fucker is dead. Couldn't have happened to a more deserving asshole.
I love this rant because it shows exactly what unhinged rage looks like. I imagine that you can be easily manipulated to hate.
Jobs was a genius and did great things for computing. He recognized the great work at PARC and bought it way before other people saw the value. The app store, for all its flaws and problems is a great execution of a great idea. You can tell how brilliant it was because it looked so obvious once it was up and by how eagerly the competition copied it almost pixel for pixel.
You deserve a long slow clap.
Steve Jobs is dead. I piss on his grave.
Doesn't matter how much money he had, he doesn't have anything now, not even life.
