    OK, some TV journalist claims Bill Gates does it, and you're applying it to Jobs without proof.



    Which orifice did you pull your "billions" to develop the MBAir out of? When will you cut your BS and actually be honest?



    In other words, link please, or you're just a lying troll. Forget that, the figure you gave is impossible, you're just a lying troll. I might take that back if you can provide a link to a non-kook site. Wikipedia doesn't count either.

    Actually, I thought it was $32 billion, but I could be wrong.

    Nobody does it. It must be reported. An executive of a company, can't pay for R&D out of pocket, and give the results to the company. The value of the R&D must go on the books.



    Don't listen to that kind of crap.

    I wasn't listening to it. It's kind of tough to know the line between feeding trolls and making sure other people see the trolls as who they are.
