I posted this in the Jokes and Funnies section, simply because its a Youtube vid, could also go in Offtopic.
I always love Steve Jobs's presentations, wether you support Windows or Mac, you can't deny the fact his funny, and he makes you think.
Heres my personal favourite presentation, If you've seen pirates of silicon valley you may be familiar with it. Its a presentation Steve Jobs gave in 1997, after he returned to Apple, as CEO.

Microsoft helped save Apple.

I love how Apple pretends this never happened today.

Somehow, I have the feeling that video is fake, somebody is just doing a drama play and pretending to be Steve Jobs!

Hell, it's probably one of the more famous moments in tech history. It even played a prominent part in the unofficial Apple/MS biography flick "Pirates of silicon valley".

Are you serious, you really think it's fake?
If you still think it's fake, compare the voice in this video to other videos of Steve Jobs. The voice is unmistakable.

He thinks this is fake, yet he believes This Concept video comes from an unleaked build of Longhorn...

Have you ever watched the movie? If so, you would know that Bill Gates in the movie said that no car company tries to claim the steering wheel.(If you didn't watch it, you'd know now)(I also reworded it a little bit ) Now based on that, what would we have if they were no mouse?
