"THE AGONY AND THE ECSTASY OF STEVE JOBS" play Open sourced to the public
Author and Playwrite Mike Daisey has released his play to the public with an "Open Source" license.

Below are some of the quotes about his play.

I remember when this play was written some time ago and didn't think much of it. If the quotes have any substance then it brings truth to the old adage "The pen is mightier than the sword".

Quote:
“I will never be the same after seeing that show.”
Steve Wozniak, Apple co-founder, to the New York Times

“Mike Daisey, in addition to providing us with a riveting, hilarious, but ultimately gut-wrenching piece of theater, may actually end up being singularly responsible for bringing Goliath to its knees.”
Michael Moore, Academy Award-winning Filmmaker

(more...)

I haven't read the play yet so I can't comment on it as of yet. I just wanted pass along a free offer for those interested.

Thanks for the fascinating read. It will be impossible for me to forget the last words "And Steve Jobs—this genius of design and form—blinded himself to the most essential law of design: that the way in which a thing is made is a part of the design itself."
