Steve Jobs

Salam all,

Since we are in the topic of thinking outside the box lets talk about the ultimate supremo on that subject matter, Steve Jobs. Not talking about the gazillion bucks that he has or his intimate private life. Just looking back 20years dowwn memory lane.

A lot of kids nowadays take for granted the latest Apple gizmos such as Ipads, Iphones and the Mac. But I grew up in the 80's and really appreciated Jobs and Wozniak's contribution to society. Of course we also had Gates around but lets talk APPLE.

Remember the old IBM dinasaour which had a separate DOS from the other office softwares. No mouse my dear, just a whole lot of F keys (pardon my computer lingo) And IBM wasnt going to improve coz they were just making too much money at that time. Of course for us poor students, we could watch a whole lot of sitcoms before anything gets processed. Talk of getting frustrated. Programming was like having an arnott biscuit in front of your screen. Now u see it now u dont.

Then came Stevie and his gizmos. the Apple Macintosh. The first question was "Where's the CPU? Its in the screen box you idiot". That was like WOOW man. out of this world. Second question was what's all those caroon characters doing on the screen especially that dustbin. That's the delete bin bro. Another wowww. And we have this little thingy called the mouse so that u can forget all nuisance F keys. Everybody gotta have one and he came through with a lot of other gizmos in the future including a WOOWW production house called PIXAR .

Guys, what we've got to learn from Stevie is to learn to dream again, Impossible is nothing and Its my turn. To unlearn what we learned in this negative world amd to tell our kids that its ok to fail as long they dont give up their dream. Thats what winning is all about and to tell u the truth I dont think steve thought a lot about money.

Thank you MR JOBS for everything...... Adios, Adieu and Arrivederci....
