So long Steve ..

> Well, Dong, I appreciate the debunking, and hell, there's a lot of hype about their products. IMHO (and I wouldn't want to argue this scientifically, it's just my subjective view), the integration of GUI elements, also with hardware, is an art that no-one even at Apple would have known existed, if it weren't for a very small team, with one person driving them to an extreme. 


Here's my list of what Steve Jobs got right, before everyone else:

1. Unix on the Desktop.
2. File/Folders no longer relevant paradigm.
3. Get the music in the listeners pocket, rock it from there.

Everything else: trivial.
