    Jobs was a Buddhist, right? That being the case, I’m hoping for a little time warping reincarnation that sticks him back on the planet three or four decades ago. He can stay in stasis until this month just to keep him from bumping into himself and disrupting the time-space continuum, or whatever other evil fate such events inspire. By most accounts he was an absolute dictatorial SOB, and I probably wouldn’t last ten minutes in a room with him. I don’t care. I just want MS to give him Ballmer’s job. They need a second coming of someone, and Jobs has the best resume for that sort of thing. Besides, it’s the most reliable way I know of to drop Windows 8 into the bit bucket. I could even live with the iWindows branding if it would get MS back on track again.

        • iPod
        • iPhone
        • Pixar
