yon, 12 days ago @chikorita157 For his faults I feel he actually liked art and education. MBAs seem to see it as waste.

chikorita157, 12 days ago @yon Then again, I'm not sure how he will feel seeing musical instruments, art supplies, and the like being squished like that. It seems, dystopian. Probably that's why MBAs want to see it squished. :bunhdthink:

yon, 12 days ago @chikorita157 If you look at the famous 1984 ad, then this is the 180 to that. Destroy the gray and suppressive in favor of the creative. But now it’s destroy the creative for, what? Apple used to be the pirates that was all about creativity and learning. That is imho gone. One never knows in a guessing game. But I would take my chances with Jobs Apple vs what we have today.
