"Bill probably wears a Brook Brothers suit (conformity...if not mediocrity). " Wasn't there an interview where he said he buys his suits at Sears?

Scott: I'm not a conservative by any stretch of the imagination but my tastes have changed. I'm the Man of La Mancha in a double breasted. One can be a visionary, a rebel and everything you think and feel and be appropriately dressed. I feel he(Jobs) is taking baby steps. That's what I mean by nickel and diming. I totally agree with you about mediocrity and Microsoft and that is an important reason why I'm for Apple. But you must agree, Microsoft markets an inferior product better than Apple markets a superior product. It seems Apple loves to stay in the same rut. I cannot fathom this lack of aggressiveness. To me, it is unbelievable and it seems Apple has not learned its lesson. Lastly, I think Jobs is more of a feeling person than Gates. I feel if Apple does not move fast enough and aggressively, a superior product will die and a mediocre product and unimaginative organization will prosper. I have not checked to see what Apple did today but I hope Jobs is proving me wrong. ED
