FWIW, I expect he was running OpenStep on that laptop.

Supposedly he kept using OpenStep on an Intel laptop after he returned to Apple. I suppose he switched once OS X was running on PowerBooks.

I seem to recall that the rumor was he only ran OpenStep until 10.2 or 10.3. Before that OS X had been pretty rough around the edges, and kind of slow on portable hardware.

There may have been some specific functionality he was missing too.

Probably he waited for Keynote to be available, and had been using Concurrence on Openstep.
