44551, "I get the worst, worst software from apple" - Steve Wozniak
Posted by Rjcc, Thu Dec-08-05 03:09 PM

Woz chimes in on DRM, open source ... and why Apple makes the worst software

http://www.downloadsquad.com/2005/12/08/woz-chimes-in-on-drm/

Apple cofounder Steve Wozniak doesn't give too many interviews, but when he does, he doesn't pull his punches. In a recent conversation with Stanford University's Cardinal Inquirer, Woz launched into a tirade against the record industry for refusing to acknowledge how technology has change their industry: "Unfortunately, sometimes the technology comes about that makes it a lot cheaper to distribute what you have than before ... so I think songs and CDs should be a lot cheaper, in the end, on the Internet. But the record companies see it as less revenue, so they fight." He also offered a surprisingly harsh critique of the company he helped found: "ig companies, Microsoft, Apple and AOL, they tend to turn out the crappiest products, you know, software-wise. ... I get the worst, worst software almost always from Apple." However, Woz also pointed out that he still only uses Macs, and added: "I love every part of the Apple world." Guess he's into tough love.

If so it's bad to shit on your own product with that said....

Tiger>>>>>>Microsoft will EVER make.

Apple product's>>>>>>>>>>>Microsoft products by far. Microsoft couldn't catch Apple if they had spies in Apple's office.

It's like MS tries to bootleg Apple and always comes out late.
44587, nah. it's been many many years since woz was on apple's payroll

WHY ARE YOU SHAMMIN!?!?!

Pullin a tiny piece out of some half-ass quote from an article that TALKS about the interview??? COME ON MAN!

He still exclusively uses MACS???

This is from the article...

Question: "Is it difficult having started this phenomenon of a company and maybe not agreeing with some of its decisions?"

Answer: "Oh no, I agree with it so much. There's just a few areas that are my own values cause me to be a perfectionist, but I do not go criticizing Apple very much at all. I mean, no, I love every part of the Apple world. You can look with your eyes and just see that it always has - every version of Macintosh, including the PowerBooks - the most beautiful product quality and they generally tend to lead the others in terms of qualities you like -- thinness, size of screen, pixels on the screen. The whole world of Apple works together."


YOUR FAMOUS WORDS..."DID YOU READ IT?!?!?"
