Hollywood gossip

Really great read, I appreciate the products he's made I use and the impact he's had but some of the stuff described in that article makes me think a whole lot less of the man.

Woz and company made the products. Jobs made you want to purchase those products.

Isaacson wrote that Jobs was livid in January 2010 when HTC introduced an Android phone that boasted many of the touch and other popular features of the iPhone. Apple sued, and Jobs told Isaacson in an expletive-laced rant that Google's actions amounted to "grand theft".

"I will spend my last dying breath if I need to, and I will spend every penny of Apple's $US40 billion in the bank, to right this wrong," Jobs said. "I'm going to destroy Android, because it's a stolen product. I'm willing to go thermonuclear war on this."

Looks like somebody doesn't like competition....
