If he were still Apple's CEO, I think he would have wised up...It's a question of "Who do you trust (more)?" Sculley or Jobs. Personally, I think Jobs is a bit more qualified than Sculley to be Chief Technical Officer. (more than three neurons firing, etc.) Remember, the temporary rebirth of the Apple II (Apple II Forever Day, '84) was Jobs' idea. Isn't it fascinating that whenever you read an article about Apple Computer these days that you continuously hear what this manager is doing, or what that director is doing. Damn, but Apple has become bureaucratic! Everybody who works there must have a job title...If Apple wanted to cut costs and improve efficiency, it should trash the managers (titled nobility) and the spam-brained marketing people. And oh those marketeers. I seem to recall that in '84, Apple won an award for truth in advertising (a Mac TV commercial). Don't think they would win one these days. >---------------------------------------------------------------------------- >Howard C.
