    But steve had me at first Gen. pod . And don't forget itunes . The largest music store in the world . And its on your apple device .

    Steve can park anywhere he wants and he can drive around the block too.

    I think this is an interesting point. If you are, say, Bill Gates and have made a ton of money by maintaining a monopoly, then giving the money to someone else is the way to give back.



    But if you have a talent like Steve Jobs clearly does, maybe you can do your best for the world by, as Steve says, "doing what you do best". So I would like to see Steve make a difference using his talents perhaps in providing first-world education at a distance or some other transformation of the execution of philanthropy - rather than handing over the cash.

    Steve Jobs is a very private person. As in, NOBODY KNOWS how much of a philanthropist he is. As in most things, he's the opposite of Bill Gates, who wants everyone to know exactly how much money he's donating.



    And there's nothing wrong with either approach. I applaud Gates for his foundation and his philanthropy (though it may be mostly his wife's doing). Except when he donates money for technology to schools, and insists on it being used only for windows computers.



    Jobs may donate a lot of money that we never hear about.

    Steve hangs at the Kona Village every so often. Was out here just a few weeks ago, seemed fine, was celebrating his daughters birthday. I'm sure he'll be OK, nothing a little Hawaiian sun can't cure.

    I hope Mr. Jobs parks his Merc inside your living room and take a dump on your bed.

    Maybe then you will understand he is an as*hole.



    Now really, Mr. Jobs is a good business man, he has great vision and he is a hell of a sales man. He did some great things in his life. But the man is an A hole. He is a jerk. An ego maniac, abuser, S.O.B. It doesn't contradict the fact the man did amazing things in his career. Capish?



    Read a little about the history of Apple.

    TALK ABOUT BEING OVER THE TOP/UNBALANCED - ROTFPMP @ the IRONY U R the 1 that sounds unbalanced and in URGENT need of emergency psychiatric treatment as DOES ANY member from a group were the emotional investiture in the GOD like "leader" (deemed infinitely more worthy, valuable and deserving respect than anyone or anything else in their lives (sound familiar? ) is so acute that all their rational thinking ability is crippled beyond use ie a CULT - not that, that is conscious to the "victim" of the cult (the Apple (orchestrated intentionally by them as an efficient way to part such desperate, gullible minds from their cash ) cult has Jobs as its leader/god through which worshiping him blindly (despite endless evidence of his inhumane immoral behaviour)/buying and using his products the cult members achieve meaning and emotional fullfillment to their existence ( BUT only temporary, as is the set up, unlike the scientific way of achieving LIFETIME emotional well being + fulfilment) , without which, such is the lack of their of IQ, a pointless, drab, flat, existence is what they are doomed to.

    Its pretty lucky i guess that his now TERMINAL advanced glucagonomas cancer will thankfully snuff out PREMATURELY his irrefutable deceitful, wicked (emotionally + financially) damaging (ranging from individuals to the entire Apple customer base and the effect that has on the rest of the (tech buying) population) behaviour; recent eg. just luck at the first generation of the 3G iPHONE and the suffering + stress EN MASSE/WORLDWIDE it caused owners who were informed they were buying a premium priced premium quality finished + marketable product instead end up with a bastardized,non reliable/rarely functioning phone ( LOL - the main point) buggy,poorly planned + thought out for practical use, uncorrectable Apple incompetent faulty hardware - it would be an injustice to even call the iPHONE 3G customers as testing something as relatively advanced as a ß product.... and what do any other companies do with such a UNIVERSALLY DISASTROUS stress causing product even if they just want to APPEAR to have some morality and care about customers - TOTAL + UNEQUIVOCAL RECALL - Whats does Jobs do with his greed and HEARTLESS selfishness - SOD ALL basically - keep silent most of the time, deliver updates that have completely opposite results for different customers, slyly changing the sensitivity of the signal strength meter so its give the ILLUSION of better reception OR the totally inane just deactivating the 3G part - one of the main feature you were being "parted" of cash by Jobs in the first place! Of course the cultist fanbois would DIE swearing Jobs SH!TS make the tastiest BEST mobile communication device EVER, so regardless of the trainwreck of the 3G iPHONE there was never ANY problem with it - it would always be ANYONES fault EXCEPT JOBs and his Apple eg the Network providers (all over the world despite Europe having MATURE 3G ), incompetent customers/users creating the faults themselves or too stupid to use (GOD!!!!!!!! that must be stupid given all Apple products are dumbed down so that lobotomized 5 year olds can use them - but not do much or quickly if you simplify everything to the LOWEST COMMON DENOMINATOR )), you should expect to be a ß tester with cutting edge technology, you should feel SUPREMELY BLESSED to be allowed to use Jobs superior TREND DEFINING work EVEN if only 1 such cutting edge tech function worked etc etc until the Nurse comes with the straitjacket + GAG and then the fanbois are "treated" to having electric shocks put through their heads for the rest of their "lives" PLUS as a side benefit they make all the other inmates of the mental SECURE UNIT look + feel SANE!

    What's his charities' ratios of administration to benefit?



    He gets far too much credit for his "good works."



    His "education" efforts are little more than excuses to proselytize Microsoft products and services.



    Gates "philanthropy" also funds abortion on demand in the developing world through Planned Parenthood International. His activity and life-long admiration for this (thanks to his dad) is well documented. I can't say I'm keen on anyone who funds mass killing.



    If you couldn't tell by the abysmal ethics of his corporate legacy, the man has no soul.
