Jobs = Apple in so many people's eyes. Will be interesting to watch, even if he stays on as chairman, whatever that means. Hope he will be with us a lot longer in any capacity. _________________________ We are what we repeatedly do - Aristotle

lanovami hours ahead of you Registered: 05/02/05 Posts: 6357 Loc: 東京都	As long as I have liked Apple, I never bothered to watch even one presentation with Jobs. I had heard what stellar presentations he gave. I finally watched one a few years back (the only one I ever watched) and was surprised to find out what a high voice he had. I expected something more commanding and baritone. All that proves of course, is that he didn't need that to be a stellar presenter. Of course, it helped that he had stellar, carefully guarded products to debut. _________________________ We are what we repeatedly do - Aristotle

MacGizmo What? Registered: 04/03/02 Posts: 18970 Loc: Arizona	It's going to be interesting to see how history treats him. Nobody, in any industry, has had near the amount of effect on how we live as he has. _________________________ The Graphic Mac - Tips, reviews & more on all things OSX & graphic design.
