Jobs vists SoHo store


In Brief: Steve Jobs' , which it says is stored in a PostgreSQL database....

    A little buggy?

    Nothing quite like a "saucy" phrase tossed in to spice up the story, regardless of truth.

    What's up with that?

    "The boss' presence also amped up the sales pitch of nervous workers, who know that new Apple products have a reputation of being a little, ahem, buggy."

    Really? Did I miss something?

    I used to work at an Apple store...one that Mr. Jobs would frequent quite often. Kind of funny how he is the Michael Jordan of computers...if Bill Gates walked into a room I'd kind of chuckle and think he's a geek whose company is a villain among villains and puts out crappy software. But when Steve Jobs comes in everyone tries to be as normal as possible, but it is a constant battle to NOT pay attention to him.

    Of course, Jobs would come in looking entirely normal, and would wait in line like the normal customer. I never rang him up, but I assume he got the standard Apple employee discount?

    Loyalty

    Obviously an employee from the "old" Windoze quote DOS world. Loyalty in company is MANDATORY... as long is the pay is right.

    Some source...

    As if the Daily News wasn't a bad enough source, this has to come out of its gossip section. Only retards read this garbage.

    Not no more Sony PDAs

    No more Sony Clie PDAs: "There won't be any new Clie PDAs but we are not necessarily exiting the PDA business." Which basically means "We think PDAs are a useless business model at the moment but we don't want to look completely stupid just in case PDAs suddenly start selling again, in which case we'll bring out some new ones under a new name, oh and probably 3 years later than the competition."
