article "Steve Jobs just missed out on winning $12,000 in the boot XP on a Mac contest!!! And you know the dude needs the cash since he is only paid $1 a year as Apple's CEO. I bet he is just kicking himself right now," wrote one poster. Shall we take up a collection for him? OMG I'm getting visions of poor Steve panhandling on the subway "I'm NOT a drug addict (rolls up sleeves to make point) nor am I going to play obnoxious music (puts Tuba away, glint of a green apple logo flashes by) I am however CEO of one of the most innovative andtechnologically advanced companies on earth today who, has advanced computing as we know it, kicking an d screamin into the 21 st century - in fact many of you are enjoying one of our products (nodding towards the spaced out dudes with white earbuds in their ears) But due to a variety of reasons on my part I signed a contract in which I am only paid one dollar per year. I have mouths to feed and new products to innovation, so if you want to continue to get newer and better iPods and computers and for me to influence my company to continue to produce these insanely great products, I am asking for a contribution - penny, nickel, dime, quarter or heh anything with Andrew Jackson's protrait. Or I'll play this tuba."
