[NPMUG] BUSTED: Steve Jobs Caught Looking Like A Dork (AAPL)

[Scott Baret]

Definitely the Mac...they just don't make them like they used to.

The old compact Macs had character. Anyone who has ever used one knows  
just how personal the computing experience feels with one of these  
little guys.

Today's Macs might be powerful and offer a lot of nice features but  
they just don't have the personality of the old Macs, especially in  
terms of design. The current iMac just looks like a big panel...it  
might look elegant but it has no charm whatsoever.

The user interface is also missing its sense of friendliness on  
current Macs. No happy Macs, no "Welcome to Macintosh", not even  
apologies when system errors occur.

I hope Apple makes a 25th Anniversary Mac that looks like a compact  
(even if it's a flatter version) and considers bringing back the sense  
of friendliness!!!

As for Steve, he needs to stick with the black mock turtleneck...
