When will these guys get it? When will they start looking up to Steve Jobs instead of treating him like a guy who just happened to get lucky eight times (Apple II, Macintosh, Pixar, Macintosh again, iPod, iTMS, iPhone, App Store, iPad)?&lt;p&gt;Steve does not talk about what will ship on every Macintosh next year. He might talk about what will ship in the next sixty days if there is an SDK he is shipping to developers today. Steve does not talk about Apple investing in R&amp;#38;D. Steve invests in R&amp;#38;D.&lt;p&gt;Talking about the future is the action of a person interested in how he looks and sounds, rather than the actions of a person interested in how the company performs.&lt;p&gt;Steve ships. Leo had better spend less time with his PR people and more time with his engineers. I have nothing against shipping WebOS on every HP PC next year. But please, Leo, just fucking do it. Talk to your engineers, not to me.</text></comment>

I always imagined I would love running something like Android on a desktop; easy to use for everyone, no worries about viruses or software updates, nice modern UI design...really, it&apos;s a wonder that these machines don&apos;t work like that already.&lt;p&gt;I can&apos;t believe I&apos;m rooting for HP on this one, but I sure hope this works and I hope it kicks ass.</text></comment>
