thanks Les<br>
another way to cut this set:<br>
-which (hideous) designs came from the period of John Scully/GillAmelio?<br>
- what year did jobs come back to apple as iCEO<br>
- what product line did he cut - almost as soon as he got back in the door (only one example of that line shows up in these designs)<br>
— oh bonus round: who did Jobs bring over from next to do the OSX unix kernel work for OSX? ( i ask because i’ve actually forgotten his name, and in looking at queries like “who lead the dev team for rhapsody at apple - nothing)<br>
<br>
but heh surprising to recall: i was at the WWDC when all this transition happened - when gil amelio introduced Steve Jobs was coming back to Apple as “an advisor” with the purchase of next and the rhapsody thing.<br>
and then Jobs was introduced end of the week to “chat” about OpenStep and the blue and yellow box - and a vision for computing more generally.<br>

<br>
so wow, as i consider it about time, and how we never get moments back so spend the now wisely<br>
i have seen steve jobs in the real, talked with guy kawasaki about being an evangelist and what that means for something you believe it, and first encountered whiteboard walls in Building 5 of Apple Campus as a grad student where engineers and marketing actually shared lab space<br>
- and at the end of the day, that means…well i’m not sure what that means, really.<br>
The use of space is the biggest take away from the time physically at apple; seeing jobs talk about why unix for Mac - awesome clarity, passion and a strong path - and that day a seeming humility within the certainty - and talking cloud computing about 15 years ahead of it becoming the norm (if we’re there now).) kinda amazing in retrospect; it was pretty stunning at the time, too.<br>
<br>
we can be heroes<br>
<br>
mc<br>
@MIT - where at kendal square just down from the big weird and wonderful CSAIL building by Frank Gehry , they have a stone in the pavement for steve jobs - among other tech icons including edison - and on the anniversary of his death folks really do leave lit candles and flowers on it. how bout that eh?<br>
