Steve jobs arrives at your desk and asks you to help him make the apple ][. Would you say yes? If so what features would you try to do

put a bullet in his head and save the future of technology and humanity

That's a Macintosh. It really needed a DAC or something for better audio capabilities, and some better way to do graphics. Tile engine like NES for example

I'd say I'd help out, borrow it for a day to "inspect", take a massive shit in it and give it back to him

Sure, it's not like he used to screw even his best friend.

Make artifact colors a supported feature instead of a useful hack.

In the end, staying hitched to Jobs worked out very well for Woz. By not throwing a tantrum over the thousand or two dollars, he ended up a millionaire who is treated like royalty in tech circles.
>>
>>110185308
Extend the product run more than they did, by
- adding dual CPU features (like The Tube from BBC Mocel B)
- render SWEET-16 into silicon
- make a 16-bit graphics processor - just line drawing would have helped a lot, preferably with a higher resolution and more screen RAM
- better keyboard
- medium term, make a multi tasking OS, like the OS9 of the 1980s
- long term, get WDC on board to make the 65000 chip (the 65816 does not count)

frankly i would just tell him to prioritize a hard drive

aw, you're telling me Abdulfattah Jandali, Jr. was a scamming fuck?
say it ain't so

>>110189134
>who is treated like royalty
because he is royalty
dude was a legit engineer

jobs was a carnival barker
a pitchman
a con artist

but i guess that's what you need to create a 21st century digital cult

And jobs got cancer lmao, with all that money you can't fix ego. With his fucking juices LOL

>>110190303
Absolutely. But our world requires both. Without Jobs, Woz likely would have been stuck deep down in some large corporation's hierarchy, creating immense value while receiving little more than COLA raises each year. No one more than two levels above him would ever know he exists or how his technical designs are the backbone of many of the company's products.
Jobs without Woz ends up as a top salesman at a Lexus dealership, privately complaining about various design shortcomings in their vehicles but never in earshot of a customer.

At least that only lasted maybe a year nearly two decades ago. He dumped her to get married to his current wife.
>>
>>110190303
Eh, Jobs wasn't any less knowledgeable about hardware or software than your average IT guy, it just wasn't his specialty and looked like ignorance when compared to Wozniak's mastery.
>>
my theory is Woz and Jobs got the name for Apple from APLs mentioned in Gates' 1976 open letter to hobbyists (mainly directed at the home brew computer club for pirating Gates' basic). APL in this case meant "a programming language"
>>
>>
>>110192781
Nah they got it from the alphabet where A stands for Apple. Shit instantly resonates with everyone.
>>
>>110192787
What a kike
>>
>>110192781
Jobs came up with the name as a reference to the 'Fruit of Knowledge' from the Book of Genesis.

ok geniuses anyone can claim the mainstream narrative is the truth then why did apple pick synchronicity [ by the police for the iPhone ringtone? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Si5CSpUCDGY
>>
this is the art for a song on the same police album. you guys' claims that apples name is not based on APL (a programming language) is like saying Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds by the beatles doesn't have a deeper meaning or the magical mystery tour is not based on a mushroom trip. have you guys watched Woz' woodstock US festival d0cumentary from the early 80s?

Better keyboard. If he wants to sell it as something people can type letters and essays on, edit them, and print them out, it should stand out by being comfy to type on.
Also integrated floppy drive from the start. At the time floppies were the future, and requiring a separate box next to it to use them was less convenient. A single box that could be plugged into power and a TV or monitor, and had everything else inside it is much nicer.
>>
>>110192855
Which narrative? We're not in your head so you'll have to explain what you mean instead of doing a vague post.
>>
>>110192910
No way. Those external disk drives were necessary to give the monitor an elevated platform.
>>110192855
You do realize that Apple Computers existed for many decades before the iphone existed, right? You're coming off as a schitzo who is off his meds.
>>
>>110192914
>the apple naming narrative
>the 2 guys in parents garage narrative
when Woz actually built the apple 1 at his desk at HP.
but also how Jobs always introduced himself in the early days as working for HP at 12 years old. he says
> I called up Bill Hewlett and asked for a job.
if you know anything about Woz you gotta know Woz put him up to that.
>>
It was Steve Wozniak that did all the cool features of the Apple II, I don't care about the "Marketing Steve".

yea mind reading attempts does come across as schizo or at least hypopophenia disorder that's why im anonymous posting. mind reading to me is like playing darts sometimes im way off. I get in these arguments alot. here's in the days gone game discord claiming that Carlos aka Jessie Williamson cult leader villain is based on Jobs. the game is based in Oregon and the We Are One apple orchard in Oregon is where jobs started his hippie journey

let's just copy whatever xerox did and act like you invented all of that bossman.
then, in maybe 20 years, let's just copy whatever palmpilot did and act like you invented all of that bossman.
then eat more strawberries to cure your cancer.

what color is your 5090? its difficult to have original thoughts. you gotta start with an original hypothesis then stew on it for a long time. People get angry at things they dont understand.
>>
>>110192944
of course I realize apple was a company before the iPhone. I dont see why you would think that. Here is where Wozniak mentions Gates' open letter to hobbiest clubs, this letter was only a few months before they chose the name apple https://youtu.be/E80u1Jww5Fw?t=1581 timestamp 27:00

It's 1080 Ti colored. You don't need anything more than that.
