    They could pay me a penny if I could have his job.

    Which one of these fools dreamed up selling more powerbooks by stopping support of $3500 models selling less than two years ago?

    Too much

    Well, that's about as much as Steve Jobs deserve... Well may be not but I hate it when mac users simply cheer at Steve Jobs without taking the time to think more objectively. Come on people, the Cube might have a great design but it was overpriced and Apple had to dump it... Just one of Steve Jobs's brilliant ideas. Now, let's face it, Apple would never have been back without him. Okay, give the man another buck.

    That's just the way it is before an economic depression. Obsolence isn't necessarily planned, it's a symptom.

    And the powerbooks are not "unsupported" - OS X graphics aren't optimized for them. Truth is you'll have a better experience running OS X on a two-year-old powerbook (or a 3 1/2-year-old Wall Street powerbook, for that matter) than Windows XP on a two-year-old, $3500 DELL. But you knew that anyway...

    Re: $1

    Why would you want Steve's job? It's h***: tons of responsibility under constant limelight (positive and negative) and a tremendous amount of pressure.

    yeah, not unsupported....

    OSX is unbearably slow at 2D tasks and NO support for 3D. That makes the system unusable for me (thousand colors? WTF!). BTW, I *don't*care about what DELL does, (or M$, or Compaq, or whatever sh*itty brand you can buy) it says Apple in the box, that's (partly) why I bought my lombard.

    Yeah, but...

    Steve got a $90,000,000 jet last year... And Apple probably buy his food for him too so I guess he only needs a buck a year. I wonder how much Pixar pay him?

    And don't forget...

    ...that's before taxes!

    I wish I could fill out a tax form and claim a $1 earnings.

    Of course I won't complain if I had to fll it out to $450 000 either.

    Pfffftttt....

    I'm so tired of hearing people gripe about "Steve's Jet" and this dollar-a-year publicity stunt. I mean, wake up. He's a CEO for crying out loud. This is what they do, like it or not. They like expensive toys.

    No, Steve's jet costs less than $10 million. However, he did get over
    $90 million in stock options, which are worthless unless Apple's stock
    goes up - and how many of us want it to go up?
