I don't really think anything apple has done in the past 20 years has been a product of there own original engineering. Seems at least to me its adaptations of other people technologies all crammed together in one device.


I mean the 2nd device, because the first was crippled just so you would buy the 2nd version in 12 months because the 1st didn't have it /support it even though it was more then capable of having those cameras and sh@# in the 1st place.

I realize Apple was a major contributer to Jobs success but didn't Jobs also play a significant role in launching Pixar, or at least putting them on the path to success with Toy Story and whatnot? Yea, Apple is his crown achievement, but it always seems to me his contribution to Pixar is always overshadowed, then again I don't know a lot of the history between Jobs and Pixar so....bleh...I don't know. *goes back to studying* :D

Heheh, while we're talking about his other endeavors, how about NeXT? :P
