Ouch!

Steve Jobs, the CEO of Apple Computer and Pixar (makers of Toy Story, Finding Nemo and the soon to be released The Incredibles), was interviewed recently for Business Week. Among the comments, he was talking about the downturn Apple went through after he was ousted. He mentions that the "sales guys" took over and that was the downfall. Most notably, though, was this exchange:

Q: Is this common in the industry?
A: Look at Microsoft (MSFT ) -- who's running Microsoft?

Q: Steve Ballmer.
A: Right, the sales guy. Case closed. And that's what happened at Apple, as well.

Ouch! Guess it serves Ballmer right after his comment about iPods containing mostly stolen music. I know that our iPod (with well over 2,000 songs) doesn't contain ANY stolen music.
