Boy, am I bummed out that I can’t get these on the ol’ Tivo anymore.
#1 – Andy
Be glad there’s sound ;).
I hate to preach that Woz knows all, but he made a damned good point when he called out how Jobs not being involved in the day-to-day will give him time ‘let his mind wander’, and come up with new implementations and products.
I think Jobs is going in the direction Gates did, where he hands over control while maintaining his “Employee #1” status. The difference is that Jobs is pulling this when the company is on the up tick, while Gates did it to avoid blame.
Am subscribed through iTunes and it hasn’t downloaded the recent episode for the past two weeks.
It was great to have sound in this episode, but the sound was still pretty crappy. I had to crank (crank –> cranky… eh EH?) my speakers way up to hear the episode. But, when a commercial popped up, it about blew my ears away. It’d be nice to see that fixed.
Also, Kudos to John for leniency on the snafu last week. Mistakes happen. Glad to hear he didn’t fire the audio/video engineer. I would like to hear about the flogging. 🙂
