i haven't, because steve jobs was a loving rear end in a top hat, and allegedly (according to yospos), a child molester!

instead i read iWoz. it's about another steve named steve wozniak. you may have never heard of him, but he was the one that actually made apple happen. jobs was just a snarky phony dickhead with a condescending behavior that made him look good talking on stage. wozniak is a huggable loving bear of a man that is completely selfless and still alive. he doesn't care about being called a genius even though he is one. jobs was a dumbass that didn't know a thing about computers and tried to cure his cancer with herbal remedies and his ego. he was also a greedy bastard that kept demanding raises and wozniak was like "look, okay have it all. it means nothing to me" and from then on wozniak only accepted $200 a week while jobs kept getting billions which he could have spent on the best surgeons in the world to get rid of his cancer, but instead died from trying to cure it with meditation and witchcraft like a moron.

so have you read the steve jobs book?

that's cool. yeah i kind of feel that the writer put a lot of sensational stuff in there that warped people's minds about jobs being such a great guy, and it has made a bunch of people want to be a greedy fucker like him. it's a conspiracy, perhaps to encourage people to make more money so the US can be richer. but has it worked? nope. because all those people are dumb, unlike steve wozniak

we need more steve wozniaks

lol okay they clearly admitted all religious explanations of the company name is bullshit, so it must be a subconscious decision that it was caused by the story of adam and eve! and also *conspiracy* *illuminati* steve wozniak was a member of the free masons! :tinfoil:
