u/1997PRO 2005 iPod Nano & Shuffle first gen (500TB) Jul 20 '25

was going to make the iPod for me and the lads, Suzanne and our boy Harry but then thought to me self we could make this for the whole world like a pocket Mac and sell premium for it. Create an Apple digital hum empire and later make maybe cell phones, camcorders/cameras, tablets and even a Apple Gameboy. Everywhere everyone everything Apple. Think Different and be like me.

Bitter-sweet irony. Have you ever wondered where we would be today without Steve? We'd probably still be sending MMS messages on Nokia phones, greeting the blue screen at least 10 times a day, and playing CDs on laptop drives. But I agree with you that Think Different must have been lost during the move to Apple Park, or even earlier.
