    LMAO

    Voiceover was lame

    Apple want to dominate their market so will always sue and sue and sue to get it.

    But they've lost their path, they've started to let PC get a grasp onto the media industry which is what MAC Dominated

    It's all a big media blast, he's dead so he's a big topic. It's the media wanting $$$ or £££.

    Pretty much. The media take no prisoners, they dig up the dead and have them spout rubbish and then create sensationalist stories based on false truths.

    Thankfully a few websites have been citing his book (which means not having to pay for his book ) and the vulgar language quoted from Jobs is horrific. What's shocking is he believes he can control consumer choice by suggesting Android should be destroyed when clearly Android is more popular than his product. It's customers that control the successfulness of a product, not Jobs. What's even more shocking is that he has stolen concepts before and is claimed to be innovative in doing so, then has a huff when his contested ideas are imitated. He did not invent multi-touch, he did not invent Siri, he did not invent the Mobile OS, he did not invent the smartphone... The list is endless. He was just a good marketer, he knew how to sell a product but unfortunately took the credit when many Apple employees thought up the ideas, designed them and produced them, or other companies did.

    If he was still alive I'd love to slap him hard across the face for his hypocrisy. They say not to speak ill of the dead, but he's making it very difficult by saying ridiculous nonsense from beyond the grave.

    It makes me laugh over your hypocrisy..

    One minute you are saying "people should just leave him alone and let him rest", and then you go on about slapping his face despite the fact he's dead.. what are you on? :S

    Also I don't think you are right - he hasn't said anything 'beyond the grave' - what he may have said 5 years ago is totally different.

    How am I being a hypocrite? Read deeper into my posts. Before this biography the media was making up their own information and posting boring, benign information. Now it's actually quotations from Jobs about how competition is evil and how he never copied anything. He maybe dead, but it's inexcusable to say the least Think of it as tearing apart theories and beliefs made by René Descartes. He's dead, but what he said is up to debate and challengable

    And the bit in bold made me laugh and I can't tell if you were being serious Dead people do not talk, it was a figure of speech. All of a sudden things he has said have come to light, it's nearly as if he is talking beyond the grave. Have you not seen that figure of speech in use before?

    Have you actually read the book?

    If you honestly think there would be less dirt on any of the other brand leaders then you need to think again.
