gapingvoid: "cartoons drawn on the back of business cards"

In the spirit of open source can you also point us to your worst interview ever?

Bill Gates himself should interview you.

I would be happy to give him the interview

Interesting vid interview... Thanks for posting it!

BTW referencing your vid comments regarding Macs. Since you recently purchased a Mac I know you get it at some level. However, your vid explanation regarding Mac and rigidity was not accurate!

Also, with your Mac Book... Depending on your Chipset, you can buy Parallels and run Microsoft OS and Mac OS at the same time. Don't buy bootcamp, buy Parallels!

Well, blow me down! You were a much more interesting subject than the vice-versa. Maybe it's because this one sounded a whole lot better, no doubt attributable to the quieter location.

You call Apple theatre, and you call it right. People LOVE theatre! I was a total skeptic until I started watching Jobs. He's a great showman. People love to beat up Apple for being "secret", and then everybody tries to copy their buzz using artificial means! (UMPC, Zune come to mind).

Microsoft has a tough time ahead. Apple seems to have got back it's mojo at a time when Microsoft is having an identity crisis.

Steve Jobs seemed to know what was going on, even back in 2004:

"Q: So the key is to have good people with passion for excellence.
A: When I got back here, Apple had forgotten who we were. Remember that "Think Different" ad campaign we ran [featuring great innovators from Einstein to Muhammad Ali to Gandhi]. It was certainly for customers to some degree, but it was even more for Apple itself.

You can tell a lot about a person by who his or her heroes are. That ad was to remind us of who our heroes are and who we are. We forgot that for a while. Companies sometimes forget who they are. Sometimes they remember again, and sometimes they don't.

Fortunately, we woke up. And we're on a really good track. We may not be the richest guy in the graveyard at the end of the day, but we're the best at what we do. And Apple is doing the best work in its history. I really believe that. And there's a lot more coming."

Gates and Ballmer? Linux is cancer.

There really is no comparison, right?
