No, but I will give Steve this: during the 8-10 period, Jobs was running NeXT. And Jobs actions in running that company would not inspire any trust whatsoever, IMO. The only thing that allowed NeXT to promote itself the way it did is that it was not public and not held to the same standards as a public company. OTOH, Steve, Apple is a public company, and I don't think Jobs is looking to repeat the mistakes at NeXT. Everything seems to indicate that he has learned those lessons. But I can understand that anyone who dealt with NeXT would be initially wary of dealing with an Apple run by Jobs.
