Where is Steve Jobs?

Our speaker is known as the most influential entrepreneur of the personal computer revolution.

Jobs is just a footnote.

Judge yourself not on the professional accomplishments but on how well you have addressed the world's inequities, how you have treated people who have nothing to do with you other than a shared humanity

And yet all the Mac zealots seem to care about is how much Apple stock is worth. Says a lot about them.

In 1996, Gates and Ballmer together donated $25 million to Harvard for Maxwell Dworkin

Well, Jobs did put a few pennies into a Salvation Army bucket in 1992 so I guess he isn't totally evil.

Gates and Clinton have collaborated on philanthropic efforts to fight the AIDS epidemic in developing countries.

Meanwhile, Jobs is busy profiting off Disney DVDs and OSX, both content that is protected by [url=http://www.masternewmedia.org/news/2006/04/05/mac_security_the_evil_drm.htm] DRM [/url] . Oh, but I'm sure he meant it when he said that DRM should be abolished... yeah... uh huh... because actions don't speak louder than words. OUCH!!!!
