peed on;
sexually
one of stebes best traits was an absolute refusal to look back and rest on his laurels and get all misty eyed about the good old days. he focused entirely on the now and the future. under stebe apple had no visitor center, no museum, no catalog of retro tshirts and pins, no anniversary models, no throwback styling. every erg of energy expended celebrating the past was a potentially catastrophic distraction from the companys core mission of building the future

its an interesting contrast to fiorina-era hp which was all about the garage and the mythology of its founding

jobs would have had the person who suggested a $300 coffee table book about apple strangled to death onstage at the next company all hands

i have one and it is good as long as you connect it via usb. getting it to work over the network seems to require some arcane ritual that randomly needs to be reset. also i had to reset everything to install a new toner cartridge??

other than that a+++++++ would buy for $50 again

my brother laser printer works fine over wifi. you can always just plug it into the USB port on your airport extreme if you have wifi problems, H T H

maybe not if you translate that to "when will it get dark"

but if you go "actually, it's called civil twilight..."

brink back "multimedia computers". they were a thing in 95, then nokia marketed their phones as multimedia computers in 05. i think we're overdue for another round.

iFixit also found that the new improved speakers are located in the lower portion of the case, while the external speaker grilles are positioned in the top half of the case and don't even go clear through to the internals, making them extremely unlikely to provide any outlet for audio. Instead, sound is thought to be projected from air vents on the sides of the case – a design feature not seen on the new 13-inch MacBook Pro with function keys.
