< Steve Jobs -- CEO of the decade >.Yeah, the dude whose computer company makes most of its profit from mp3 players & smartphones. The dude whose company had to be bailed out to the tune of 150 MILLION dollars by their chief competitor. The dude ran his company into the fucking ground producing Macs in various colours so morons could match their machines to their drapes. CEO of the decade my ass.

Let's also not forget that the only reason they have the iPod is because RealNetworks turned the inventor down first, so he took his idea of a portable MP3 player and it's scrolling functionality (and online store, etc.) to Apple.

The bailout happened at the same time Jobs was brought back after a 12 year absence, so that wasn't really his fault. < Steve came back in 1997 > Yeah, I'd say he's done a good job. |
