.... well kind of anyway :)

he's registered, just hasn't bought anything!

goto http://search.ebay.co.uk/ and search for member steve@mac.com

and you get a result!

You're right, there is a member with that ID. Ebay's policies have changed now though, and you can only view that person's details if you're currently in a transaction with the mentioned person or have been in the last 60 days?

Also just because someone registered with that handle, doesn't mean it's actually Steve Jobs. :p

yeah but someone would have to have access to the steve@mac.com account, don't you have to verify your address to become an ebay member? (can't remember if i had to or not)

Hm that's true. Strangely it doesn't give a username associated with the account, it just says that it's been registered with a valid Ebay member. Interesting find.

There was a post on here 1-2 years ago about a vintage guitar he was bidding on. Maybe someone can find it. Steve was outbid around $30K if I remember right.

Steve Jobs does things on the internet that everyone else does.

Yeah, he obsesses about Apple minutiae and spends more time with his aging computer than he does humans!

Oh, and then there's the video games...! :rolleyes:
