hey MC, how long have you been following Apple? me.. since 1989, the LCII days.. Apple has positioned themselves very strongly this time... watch that space--they are the best there is and I'm truly excited about their future.

Can I point you to a very young Mr. Steve Jobs... this a truly a classic... still the Jobs today. Be patient pls, choose one(21 MB), but do watch it :

no worries....

i got that file in my mac quite some time back...

i got another one... its an advert... about the simplicity of a mac... then the guy was smashing up macs... insulting macs... and he ended it with, "this ad you see tonight, i cut it all together, on a macintosh." that one is hilarious...

i follow mac very long already... but all the while no $$ and guts to go into it...

only actively started last year sept... when i got my first mac... PowerBook G4 15"....

abit regretted... should have got a 12"....

now i frequent traveller... the weight was killing me..... but gotten abit used to it now... after golfing 18 holes with my huge club bag.... and after 1st year ICT.... :P

er....

before no $$$....

then later got abit more $$$$ then i went the apple way....

and then later need to learn golf for business..... so squeeze some $$$ for lessons... and clubs...

got a whole iron set and driver from my uncle.... he give me....

but actually golf is not $$$$ it is the membership that is $$$... and i got no clubs memberships....

so it should equate in the end....

MC, sorry not implying anything... I always thought it was a rich man's game... I know so little about golf :)

Another glimpse of Steve Jobs, jus out today : How do you choose a washing machine.

That part about the washing machine was also repeated in the book, 'iCon Steve Jobs: The Greatest Second Act in the History of Business', except that it misses out the punch line...

...."Design isn't about looks only, its also about how things work."... maybe Creative can gleam something from that. Man if there is anyone I'd like to shake hands with in the world it would be him.... (actually, I have my list.. the first person would be none other the late Holy Father, John Paul II, Jobs can wait when compared to him :) )

Anyway today Apple announced that it sold 1 mil videos downloads in 20 days, thru the iTunes music store... simply amazing!
