    I’ll say this. For how much shit Steve Jobs gets, regardless of his personal life, he would never allow this shit to happen. That crazy bastard is responsible for getting rid of the floppy drive and pushing the industry towards USB 1.0.

    You can find old forum posts of the original iMac launch and see how surprised and somewhat upset people are at this revelation.
