NeXTSTEP Release 3 Demo

Apple was having a really hard time with their own next generation operating system which allowed Microsoft to leap ahead of them. They tried to incorporate bits of it in all the system versions from around 7.6 onward but they never got all of it included or even finished, even when OS 9 was discontinued it was still incomplete and needing a lot of work to bring it into the modern age. Jobs scrapped all that and started fresh using NeXTSTEP as the basis for OS X and it was a good move.

When he founded Apple he used to wear dirty, ripped t-shirts, cut off shorts and was frequently seen barefoot around the office. He allegedly didn't smell very good, either.

You never see the big wigs like Jobs doing demos like this anymore. Damn shame.

I still don't see some of those functions in Mac OS X. It makes me wonder if Steve had conflicts with the OS designers when he got back to Apple.

This kind of explains why he loved the death of Mac OS 9.

@dfr343 From what I have read, it wasn't a disagree or agree scenario. It was a "if you don't like what i'm saying then get the F out".
Steve always appreciated criticism or disagreeances, but when it came to a feature being in or out, then it was solely up to Jobs. If it wasn't a solid feature or polished enough yet, it was their job to make it so.

@THeAppleFanKiD1912 It's not surprise. Macs weren't that great in the '90s. It was only until they started the Mac OS X line of development that they only became truly great and Apple owes a lot to Steve and the NextStep development team for all the great things that are found in Mac OS X.

I love Steve Jobs, I love Mac, I own 4 Apples.

I heard a boom or 2 in there haha.

"fail" "win" Don't be silly, nobody with even half a brain says fail or win.
