"Apple is like a ship with a hole in the bottom, leaking water, and Steve's job is get to the ship pointed in the right direction." - Steve quoted
No, Steve did not quote that. If you listened to the ATD conference discussion between Jobs and Gates recently, Steve Jobs said that Gil Amelio (former head of Apple during Jobs' absence) had said this, including that it was his (Amelio's) job to get the ship pointed in the right direction. Interestingly, later on in the same discussion, Jobs said something about "...a ship that leaks from the top...", which I took as a reference to the previous quote, meaning that he was taking a stab at Amelio for leaking information while at the helm. Anyone else take it the same way or am I looking for scraps of drama where there is none?
