Ok, this computerworld kid has a couple of points but the writing is drawn out drivel.

The personal dig about steve's wardrobe was totally un-needed and unclassy.

Steve Jobs has masterminded the most amazing turnaround story probably in history. Have some respect at least. What an idiot this writer is.

You say that the dig about the wardrobe is "un-needed and unclassy" and then go on to say the writer is an "idiot". I think you need to look in the mirror and see that the pot is just as black as the kettle.

No, it wasn't a great joke, but the funniest part about it is that it came at the end of a long article that would have had Apple fan-boys so steaming mad that they would be unable to rationally respond to it. And there is nothing funnier than watching normally rational people so angry that they're irrational.

(And thus unable to rationally respond to this comment, making the whole situation worse, but even so much more funny.)
