I am firmly convinced that he cares about market share. A lot. Because it's the only thing in his career he has never achieved and that he has never beaten Bill Gates on. Jobs has achieved worldwide recognition as a CEO, visionary and businessman, created new markets that people didn't know existed, generated billions of dollars in market value and shareholders wealth (and himself as well, obviously), but seeing an "Apple computer on every desk" is the one thing that still eludes him, and I'm pretty sure that the simple idea that it's Windows computers that are occupying this spot are a sore point for him. Just speculating, of course, but I expanded on these thoughts in this post<http://beust.com/weblog/2010/09/22/what-steve-jobs-really-wants/>some time ago. -- Cédric -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
