brilliantly stupid

we'll probably never know just how steve jobs, ceo of apple computers, was able to conceive and build such a brilliant operating system, after this incredible blunder.

the ipod patent, which accounts for an estimated 1/3 of apple's profits, is now held by none other than jobs' nemesis, bill gates.

check out this cbc article.

what this will mean for apple's revenue is, as yet, unknown. but there is a high percentage chance that apple with have to pay bill gates a percentage of all ipod profits -- for a technology they developed themselves.

the person responsible for missing out on that must be in big trouble! they've either lost their job or they are in hospital having someone's boot surgically removed from their arse. (or maybe their own boot - cuz they must be kicking themselves for being so amazingly stupid)
