I'm going to destroy Android because is a stolen product: Steve Jobs

New Steve Jobs bio book will be released tomorrow. Wonder what you guys think of such a bold statement.
By the way I pre order mine few days ago. I guess it will be delivered wireless tonight or early tomorrow via whisper sync. :-)

He also has said; "We have always been shameless about stealing great idea's"

I liked Job's but that comment is a bit of a contradiction.

I really believe that these types of angry vengeful thoughts have a negative effect on health. I hope android does very well. I plan on my next phone being an android device.

Well, I actually don't care either, lol ... love my Android phone, really like my two IPads 2 ...

And yes, if you live with that kind of thought in your life and heart, that will affect your health for sure. Wonder if Buddhism accepts that, is what he practiced...

Not sure "accept" is the word but it would not advocate it. But then he said he was a Buddhist, don't think he claimed to be a Buddha.

I don't (insert appropriate verb here) anything Apple, including Jobs' bio.

IMO, one should be held to higher standards if one consciously and willfully adopts a religion, rather than just be born into it.

I think that's fair and understandable but how much higher a standard? We cannot expect perfection obviously but it seems reasonable to at least expect some effort. I don't know much about Jobs so I really wouldn't like to say.

He wanted to kill Flash, not Adobe. I was surprised at how he moved companies away from flash on their webpages or getting them to create apps for the iphone.

Microsoft agrees now, the new IE will not support flash. I think that might be the one that ships with windows 8 next year. This is the desktop os, not mobil operating system.

My understanding is the Desktop browser will support it, but the mobile one won't. They'll do it by not allowing plugins on the mobile app, but they'll still be available on the desktop.
