Weekend Humor - Macworld Bloopers

Sun, 12/09/2007 - 16:59 — Chauncey Dupree

Steve Jobs and Apple are known for their riveting Macworld keynotes that have the technology world on edge.  They are usually pretty sharp on delivery and obviously well rehearsed.  However, not so long ago some of these keynotes went a bit wrong.  A funny and sometimes a bit embarrassing look at some Macworlds gone bad:

(BTW- check out Steve's threads in OSLO - looks very strange with a tie!)

This is just great to see. The idea how well Steve Jobs responds under pressure is remarkable and must explain in part his leadership ability.

Ha ha, those are pretty funny. Some of the presenters really adapted rather well though. I feel so sorry for the guy with Quake 3. Poor fellow.

"The guy with Quake 3" was Phil Schiller, Apple's Senior VP of worldwide marketing.

I really felt bad for Sony's president...man that was rough.

"i watched a lot of those keynotes and they're full of er's and uh's"

I watched a lot of Microsoft keynotes that were full of rampaging, sweaty hypesters screaming about "developers" and paste-eating geeks who didn't have a backup system when Windows blue-screened in front of the whole world...

"pay money to make a ringtone from a song you already own... thats pretty cool? get real"

I am assuming that your sarcasm is aimed at the greedy bastards in the music industry who make this possible. I believe that they charge about $3.00 for a ringtone these days, don't they? Are you really so insecure that you have to broadcast a song fragment to announce to the world that your posse is calling? I'll bet that your ride really bumps, too. Please pull up your pants - I don't need to see your underwear.

"steve jobs is quite annoying too, keeps using superlatives, telling us his shit is 'pretty cool'."

Seems that a large and growing segment of the population seems to think so, too - which is why they buy the stuff but don't invite Steve over for dinner.

Voyance

thanks for youtube !
