помимо всего прочего уход Джобса неожиданно так же и обрадовал: читать сейчас лозунги идиотов — это редкое и ни с чем не сравнимое удовольствие. тут тебе и падение акций (судят по after hours[1], ага), и скорый закат Apple, и поголовное самоуничтожение всей яблочной продукции на планете.
смешные такие:
In 1999, I think right after the iMac came out in a range of colors, I happened to sit in on an internal meeting at Apple, one in a large theater filled with employees. Steve Jobs came out and the whole theater burst into applause, and the clapping went on for minutes, with people standing and cheering. The success of the iMac was just becoming evident – the first act of Steve’s big return, leading from there to what Apple is now.
Steve let the applause go on for a little bit, then, with much effort, settled down the crowd. When things got quiet, the first thing he said was: “That’s an awful lot of applause considering that you guys are the ones who do all the work.”
