Steve Jobs 1997-getting booed for Microsoft deal

winkler1says...

"Here we see Steve Jobs & the almost bankrupt at the time Apple Computer making a temporary deal with Bill Gates & Microsoft. The crowd was not too happy about it."

Gates comes in via satellite @4:30.

What's very funny about this: Microsoft owns a large share of Apple - increasing it's market share of the PC Monopoly!

Thank god for Safari - Internet Explorer is even worse on the Apple OS (9 or X). Java on the Mac is the only distribution that is medeled with by anyone in-between development / user (but, as a Java programmer, I'm yet to find a technical problem with this system).

I'm looking forward to when Microsoft pisses Apple off with pulling Office/etc. and they retaliate with supporting Windows natively within OS-X (they already legally have the rights to the XP API, after Microsoft bought into them with the major court-case that culminated with the MS share shopping spree & development of Office).

I recommend the audio book "I Woz" by the Apple co-founder. Mac and Microsoft grew up in the same school so it is not a big surprise they might work together on some things. I don't see a problem.
