CNBC Special on Steve Jobs Airs Thursday Night

[Lotso]

I liked it. Since I'm only 19 I learned a lot about what was going on in the tech world before my existence, and before I understood it. It was cool to hear Scully and Woz's and that other executive(kowasaki?).

Good watch!

I watched it, thanks to TiVo. It was quite good.

It's going to be rerun a few more times in the next 2 weeks. http://www.cnbc.com/id/15837901/ might help. My TiVo (for the Pacific time zone on my Frontier FiOS feed) shows it as being rerun on 6/26 6 pm and 7/4 12 pm.

TiVolution rocks!

Saw it. Nothing special. Bloomberg had a much better program a few months back.

I enjoyed it, but it could've been better. It praised Jobs as a one man show who created Apple singlehandedly even though Woz made few appearances. I was hoping for an in-depth analysis of his life and personality, but all I got was an Apple timeline.

Was ok. Nothing really new or earth shattering. Didn't like how much they had Sculley on there. Like you said was more of an Apple timeline that touched on the impact of the iMac, iPod, iPhone and iPad without really hitting the gravity of those impacts. Could have been much better. But what do you really expect from a semi journalistic hack series like Titans. Eh.

And sorry, but the whole successor thing. IMHO, the best successor, though probably a reluctant one, was featured in a couple shots, though without any speaking. Jonathan Ive. I think more than Phil Schiller, Scott Forstall, Tim Cook or any other high profile exec at Apple, Ive is the visionary that Steve is and much of Apple's and Steve's success is due in very large part to his contributions to their products.

Agreed. Even the preview clips show the same people rehashing the same lines as shown on Bloomberg's "GameChangers" show.

I liked watching it but think the upcoming authorized biography will give far greater depth.

I have it on the DVR and may watch it tonight, but I am looking forward to the auto-bio.

Gates' willingness to sacrifice anything to gain market share worked out... lying to IBM about having an OS ready, buying then licensing QDOS, taking ideas from Xerox/Apple to make Windows then threatening Apple with taking Word/Excel away if they sued over Windows. Kind of dirty pool but there's no arguing with success... your product doesn't need to be the best, only needs to be good enough.

Didn't know about MS threatening to no longer develop Excel/Word for Mac OS ... yet its odd it would be that important since Lotus 1-2-3 and WordPerfect was so much more powerful then.

Did anyone by chance get to record this and willing to share this, please?! I'm unsure if it is wrong to ask..
