'markers felt'

I met Woz once and he is SO NICE

didnt tom cruise already play jobs in that biopic with ben stiller

Every time I think of Woz, I think of him sitting in that casino with a booklet of two-dollar bills that he's perforated himself.

Wozniak Says 'Lot of Things Wrong' With Jobs Movie (video): http://www.bloomberg.com/video/wozniak-says-lot-of-things-wrong-with-jobs-movie-Mm1dnrz8QJuikP6iFdCJmQ.html

Seems a bit weird that they sent the first draft to Dan Kottke and Mike Markkula but didn't talk to Woz until the script was finalised and nothing was going to get changed.

Anyone know if Kottke ever got the stock options he mentions not getting in the Slashdot piece? Was he one of the people Woz gave some of his own options to?

gimme a few minutes and i'll go look something up

is he someone's dad yet?

he's not frank's dad.

lol "is he someone's dad yet?" was supposed to go in the umairh thread!

lol

no comment.....

I though you had to be dead for eight years before they put you on a stamp.

used to be ten i think (one if you were president), which would make sense w/ johnny carson, some story i googled says it's five now which jobs would be at in 2016. wilt chamberlain's been dead for fifteen years.

time to introduce a bill to put him on one of the outdated denominations of currency, like idk the dime

there should be cultural figures on our currency in addition to political figures. not jobs necessary, but people like whitman, ellington, apatow, etc

I agree - let's kill Apatow now and hopefully we can have him on a stamp by 2019

cool it

the world would be a lot better off if people on ilx stopped talking about technology

I dig this stat

this was published on his website yesterday, but i just saw it a little earlier: http://donmelton.com/2014/04/10/memories-of-steve/

Obligatory slo-mo transition scene set to 1970s classic rock staple. Every movie should have one, especially Bible movies.

this dude really isn't so interesting. stop making art about him.

you're definitely a lot more interesting, i'll give you that

anyway

http://www.amazon.com/Becoming-Steve-Jobs-Evolution-Visionary/dp/0385347405/

if only my interesting life were the threshold for art inspiration. there'd be 30 biopics about every being. squirrels with ghost writers, etc.

A rich and revealing account that will change the way we view Jobs, Becoming Steve Jobs shows us how one of the most colorful and compelling figures of our times was able to combine his unchanging, relentless passion with a more mature management style to create one of the most valuable and beloved companies on the planet.

lots of good replies, keep em comin
