Bill, Jobs caused Motorola staggering losses they deducted and also probably a lot more they didn't. I think they deducted $65 million on the stopping of the Mac clones. They were also publicly humiliated and their contributions over the many years were discounted by Jobs' "business decision." I feel badly that happened and wish that Jobs had somehow found a way to sweeten the situation for them. Motorola went on a limb banking on Apple and Apple cut the rug out from under them. Of course, if Jobs ever wants their support again, he might find a way to get it. Jobs is pretty special in the charm department. Linda
