I never said Jobs has a fiduciary responsibility to Apple's customers. I said the best way to uphold his fiduciary responsibility to the shareholders is to concentrate on Apple's customers.
Secondly, Jobs never held the CEO position at Apple until after the Apple, Next merger. He was a co-founder at Apple but didn't actually have the CEO title. He left the company around the release of the Macintosh (he took charge of that project after the Lisa failure), after he was marginalized by a CEO he helped pick. He started Next and was its CEO until it was acquired by Apple. A few years after this acquisition he accepted the CEO title at Apple.
I bought my mother an iMac for Christmas. The reason an AIO is so cool is because she went from having a huge desk filled with a 19" CRT, a computer box, and a multi-function printer to a huge desk with vast amounts of usable desktop and a 17" iMac and a hulking MFP banished to the far corner of the desk. It made a huge difference and I can't count the number of times my mother and family members mentioned the fact.
This is her first Mac. She had a troubled Emachine and this is my way of getting out of supporting piece of junk PCs and OSes (Windows). Before buying this gift, I trained her on an old PowerMac of mine (that she thought was going to be her new computer) and she liked it better.
All of the videos I saw were taken by and of dumbasses gathering by the shore waiting for the tsunami to roll in.
Then again, I guess all the videos would be taken by dumbasses because the people that could benefit from an early warning system wouldn't have been hanging out on the shore.
I have no sympathy for the people killed while sightseeing. But I mourn for those caught unprepared.
Steve can be a "kill your television" type all he wants, but his first duty is to the shareholders at Apple. If he fails to keep the profits up and the shareholders happy then he can be replaced...again.
Under Steve's fiduciary responsibility to his shareholders, his first duty is to the customers of Apple. People tend to forget that. If Apple releases a piece of shit living room box just to satisfy the shareholders, it'll turn off the customers. And that is something the shareholders definitely don't want to happen. And I'm one of them.

How could you guys forget to mirror der newsposten?
Alright. So, a couple things happened.
One, the SonySyndrome "story" is probably over. We're fond of this as an ending place for it, but we your comic masters are mercurial and delight in misdirection. One never really knows. We promise nothing, and you should expect nothing. Nothing!
The second thing is that the Spike event sort of put me off of awards for the time being. Just as a random comment, if your 2004 awards program does not include Metroid Prime 2 or World of Warcraft, it has no authority whatsoever to coronate the king of any genre. I'm not even saying that those games need to win. I'm simply stating that the games exist and are real, news which has not reached them out there on the ragged periphery of taste and intellect. It has been our annual tradition to list the twelve most delicious games of the year here at Penny Arcade, and though the odds of us telling you our favorites are actually quite high doing it the way we've done it for the last few years really sounds awful to me. To both of us, even. So we're not going to do that.
What we are going to do is present a very short children's book concerning a celestial alignment which awakens the doom that lies dead and dreaming in R'lyeh. The first page can be found here. Ia! I'm sure you'll agree that this will be a great deal more fun for everyone involved. It goes until the 27th of December, the Monday after next. This is the cover.
Child's Play: Kiko's Child's Play Shirt is, like his other work, a stunning act of design savvy. He still has a few left in the run, if you'd like to climb aboard. We're coming up on the end of this year's drive, and I have every faith that when we incorporate the gifts from the partner sites last year's high score will be defeated, and we will enter our initials.
Please consider what the games you enjoy could mean to a young person staring down a long-term illness. If you haven't given yet, it's possible you don't know: you're entirely capable of heroism. The barrier to entry is surprisingly low.

There is nothing wrong with using the word "nigger." It's a word. It's five letters put together in a unique arrangement. Slashdot wasn't using it in a derogatory manner. They simply printed the word while reporting on something that involved its use.

Thinking caps would be nice, but think of the bugs that would occur in your code when the cute intern walks by your cube.
No, but there is oil in Venus.
If Sunday is the first day of the week, how can it be part of the weekend?
Read the book or the site. You're severely uneducated on this.
Wasn't it a copyright infringement lawsuit that forced MS to abandon MSAV?

The new iMac and Airport Express both have digital optical outputs.
He's a PC user. He intends to copy the software.

(CW)TB out.
No, Slashdot was Penny-Arcaded.
But what about first responders?
Popularity hasn't affected Apache httpd, so I wouldn't worry about FireFox so much.
The Incredibles was also a blockbuster movie.
What is your point?
