My Next Laptop Will NOT Be a Mac (But Dell’s)
Posted: March 6, 2008 Filed under: apple, dell, free, Linux & OpenSource, microsoft, opensource 1 CommentComparing to Microsoft aggressiveness, I was wondering whether Apple is just passive aggressive?
Both companies are making money selling proprietary, closed-source software (and hardware) . Perhaps Apple just dose it more gently with a wider smile on the face. That is all.
Even getting a legal copy of OS x runs on a virtual machine is almost impossible.
For now, I will stick with Dell which runs Linux smoothly.
The Zen of Steve Jobs
Posted: January 13, 2008 Filed under: apple, art, steve jobs, style, zen 8 CommentsEver wondered about Apples designers sources of inspiration?
I thinks I just found one, its name is Steve Jobs.
I was worth about over a million dollars when I was twenty-three
and over ten million dollars when I was twenty-four,
and over a hundred million dollars when I was twenty-five and it wasn’t that important because I never did it for the money.
The following is a photo was taken by Diana Walker and it shows Steve Jobs in his house in 1982
Jobs said about it:
This was a very typical time. I was single.
All you needed was a cup of tea, a light, and your stereo,
you know, and that’s what I had.
•Bare in mind• the fact that in 1982 Jobs was already 27 years old, 2 years after he was already worth more than hundred million dollars, and yet, he kept that elegant minimalism principle.
