While I think modern Apple is the definition of pure hypocrisy. I honestly dont see how that is hypocrisy from Steve.

And I dont see how that is infamous. I actually thought Steve was very polite in replying. Had the decency to give him a straight answer.

I didn't say it was hypocrisy from Steve, I said it was a game. I think it probably is though - he calls him a liar but I think he misrepresented his offer. He was very unlikely to pony up 50 million for iLike. A good faith offer shouldn't explode like that. Calling someone a liar while you're lying is hypocrisy.

But again in the second paragraph I didn't say or imply that he was being a hypocrite. Just that he was playing a game. When I said hypocrisy I was talking about the current app store approval process. Steve Jobs was only involved in that for about 3 years more than a decade ago.

Wow, that hurt to read.
