Except that he's called Steve Jobs not Steve Job, so Jobs' is the correct use of the apostrophe.

A back-side interface for the Tablet?

Today, by doing casual research on “back side touch” keywords, I found a very interesting 2007 patent filing by Apple:
force-sensitive back-side interface

The patent is credited to Apple engineer John Elias. This guy is the founder of Fingerworks.com, a company dedicated to develop devices than can be controlled by gestures. Apple hired him 5 years ago, and surprise! the website has been shut down this week…

Timing is perfect for a 27 January presentation, isn'it?

Apostrophes - They Are Not That Hard To Work Out

Struggling with the use of apostrophes there Nick?

To show possession by one owner, add an apostrophe and the letter s to the owner:

IE : Job's mob... rather than Jobs' mob

Strangely enough, you managed to get it right on some occasions, and then fuck it up on others.

As for the story, I've been reading that an Apple Tablet has been coming for years now. Maybe one day it will come true.

Nick, don't go soft on those Apple Fanbois!

Give them stick, they love it and so do we.

Apple Tablet, my brother's wife says she heard about them and she think's they sound really good. She's not a techie and has very little tech knowledge, but she is a nice bright person in other respects!

And that's the person that Apple appeals to. Someone who knows little about the market. It's why business is so slow to adopt Apple pc's, businesses actually know something.

The very latest Apple Tablet spoilers

When it emerges from its burrow just after dawn in front of a crowd of fanbois on Cobbler's Knob it will foretoken via its camera its own shadow's affect on the arrival of the Vernal equinox most adsuredly to the delight of the faithful, but in aggrevated opposition to the Groundhogese powers that (had) be.

A clay tablet between the channel.

And thereto it will be tied-into another's clothing, having the shirt off one's back and the pants of a thousand and score leopardesses.

"Here once there stood 19 Apple trees 9 bearing apples every year; now they are not standing. Who has taken them away from me? Whither have they gone all of a sudden? Now I see them - now I do not!"

Nick, you're slacking off!

A measured tone never pays off.

However, interesting tidbits.

@nammy

I think you've just described the majority of Nick's work. It doesn't seem to have any effect pointing this out though.
