Fake Steve Jobs
I don’t normally mix business and pleasure (well, that’s a lie), but today I saw a link on Dare’s blog that led me to a new post on Mini’s blog that led me to a new Fake Steve Jobs post I hadn’t seen.
It’s a good read for those with a scholarly interest in the ecomic dynamics of operating-system markets. (That last sentence is intended to keep Mom from reading it, of course.)

I must be getting old. I find I’m reading the fake tech news more than the real stuff these days.

I do find it’s handy to pretend to be Ballmer around campus, though. Most of the younger kids just react to my authoritative bald dome, without stopping to think “Steve doesn’t have a mustache!”
