While I think Jobs is a douche and he should have just deleted the email, technically he's right. It's not his companies job to respond to a single college kid working on a project.

 

If the professor is a good one, he'll turn this into a lesson for her.

Yes, because she certainly didn't learn anything herself from the encounter.

Apple doesn't owe her squat. She thinks she's Dorothy. Well, welcome to Kansas, 'cause this ain't Oz.

While Jobs might be rich and hyper intelligent, she came off better than him IMO. He never had to respond. He chose to respond and responded as a complete dick. I would guess he likes doing that.

Apple sucks. The same items used in PC are 1/3 the cost. THE SAME EXACT THINGS. Apples are for people who want to spend a bunch of money to have somethign really pretty. In reality a well built computer is a well built computer. A Best Buy PC is a Best Buy PC.

i kind of like his reply...she almost sounded as if she felt entitled to a reply....

 

 

 

I sorta agree Pooj if you mean Jobs replyinig. Yet, all she is doing is asking Apple's public relation's department to reply... Which she should at least get a reply from them. No?

 

EDIT: Even if it is the PR department telling her to go pound salt.

What gets me is the whole "leave us alone thing." Those are some pretty pissy words considering. Those are the kind of words that live forever. Totally out of line for a guy like Jobs to say. This is a guy who can be considered a thief... Considering how he raised his capital early on by ripping off the phone company. Now, in typical fashion is running the "machine" and he says: "Leave us alone." :doh: Did this tool forget his roots, sure sounds like it.

You're right, just like a steak is a steak, same exact things.
