A comment on ‘Catch Me If You Can’ conman Frank Abagnale Jr. lied about his lifetime of lies. Parent comment
* Apple would still be wasting its time marketing 420 SKUs of beige Macintosh, along with its panoply of zero-value-add peripherals
* Apple would never have tried to make an iPod, which was, for Apple, an insanely out-of-left-field hobby project driven by Jobs
* Without the iPod, there would be no iTunes Store, which near-single-handedly pulled the music industry into its post-Napster era
* There would be no iPad, a project inspired by Jobs’ personal reaction to a dinner with Gates
* There would be no iPhone, a project spun off from iPad development and fast-tracked for earlier release
* If Apple ever did develop a phone or tablet, it probably would have been based on NewtonOS and fail to crack 1% market share
* Android would have stayed on course to be a competitor to the Blackberry
