...but let's remember that he opposed the use of GUIs Whatever gave you that idea? According to his book and Jef's own website he was one of the early spokesmen of WYSIWYG. He even invented drag'n'drop - building on other's design ideas. What he IS opposing is the way current GUIs use the mouse and modes - even alot of his own designs from the time when he was working for Apple.
Maybe he didn't memorize the 100-digit number within 11.8 seconds but was simply told what to do with it when the clock started ticking.
