Steve Jobs likes GripShifters?

http://www.sg.hu/kep/2005_07/0707jobs2.jpg

Sure, that seems like the classic GripShift pose, but who knows?

According to a recent article, the same guy who developed Apple Computer with his hacker buddy in his parents' garage, the same guy who dropped out of Oregon's own Reed College only to come back and take classes "while scratching an existence earning a few cents recycling cans and eating for free each week at the local Hare Krishna temple," the same guy who brought Graphical User Interfaces and handheld input devices to the mainsteam, the same guy who gave us the only portable MP3 player you can play Doom on, will not tell us what kind of bike he has or what he likes about it.

What he will tell us is that "the last piece of technology that he acquired - not made by Apple - that really delighted him" was..

..his bicycle.

Now I don't feel weird for having an Apple decal on my Pocket Rocket Pro. Not like I did anyways. It's all about Think(ing) Different. Right, Steve?

Besides, I own a little 12-inch PowerBook, the same machine Lynette uses to kick out all those pithy articles you find on our website.

Some come all you Mac/BF freaks! Stand up and be recognized!

Hehe, well, you know my opinion. My first time riding to Apple from SF was on my fixie BF.
