I love quality. I love functionality. And that is why I don't have an
Apple.

I have a lifelong interest in space exploration. By your standards,
that would qualify me to run NASA.

THat's simply proof that computers have been made for the
developmentally challenged, such as yourself.

After a world wide search going on for nearly 2 months, 24/7 by 1000's
of people, nobody has come up with the secret you keep.

Yes, who is Adele Goldberg and what did she do for Apple/SJ? You were
close with Milk and Cookies... but you might have been wrong if it was
actually Punch and Cookies.

So if you don't know and the world doesn't know, it confirms she did
nothing for Apple/SJ.

It was? Nobody on usenet knows, Adele certainly doesn't know, only YOU
know.

Please provide your long hidden secret... everyone is DYING to know!

I'm sure we'll all get a great chuckle when you finally tell everyone.

What point were you trying to prove.

All that video shows is a dream list of vaporware.

You mean, after a search through your underwear and with you sticking
your head in the sand and refusing to see the answer spoon fed to you,
YOU haven't come up with the answer.

Hint: the answer isn't in the sand, nor is it in your underwear.

He did not want Jobs to see the famous Xerox tour... and would only do so if
under "orders". Atkinson has described that tour as an inspiration and as
something that helped them know they were already on the right track. Jobs
and company understood the importance of the graphical system far better
than did the Xerox management.

not sure what you mean, apple has every portion in place except for the
foldable screen and a bit of AI.

wireless is there, www is there, built in camera is there, voice rec is
there, multi-touch screen is there, ichat is there.

and apple/sj popularized it all...

but thanks for playing DTC!

Why is he doing this search trying to figure this all out ?
Did he not say he knows all when it comes to apple ?

close.

Anyway, Jobs and company saw nothing BUT the GUI, and completely missed
the significance of the network and the printing. COMPLETELY.

Jobs was so blind, it wasn't funny.

That's right. Oxford is the world's most foremost expert on Apple and
its history.

Just ask him.

Then ask him who Adele Goldberg is, and what crucial role did she play
in Steve Jobs's life.

Sorry, stupid. Apple did not popularize wireless, www, cameras, voice
recording or chat.
