Come al solito non colgono il punto


Mi era stato richiesto un intervento ...

Su alcuni siti italiani, non dirò quali, si è parlato, come spesso succede a sproposito, del Analyst Meeting Conference Call. Qui lo stream. Tornando a noi, come dicevo, i "critici" non colgono il punto, e/o si aggrappano a fatti/epserienze personali e sentenziano. Invece una cosa interessante l'ha detta Jobs (strano, vero?). Alla domanda sulla convergenza tra TV e computer, risponde: "This is not a new thing ... Apple was the first company to ever do this. And there is a small audience that likes this. It is not a large audience ... People want 42" and above plasma screens on their wall and they want to view them from far away with their friends or family. And generally, what they want to view on their television has to do with turning their minds off ... Now how do I want to work on my computer? Do I want to work on it 6 feet, 8 feet, 10 feet away with my buddies? No, I want to work on it a few inches away by myself. It's a very very very different experience. We've always believed that this convergence between the computer and the television wasn't going to work. We do believe that there's room for people watching some television on a computer now and then. And we do believe there's a vast opportunity to make televisions more intelligent and home entertainment systems more intelligent and easier to use. But that does not mean that computers and televisions are coming together. And, um, the media center -- basically every young person already has their stereo on your computer - that has come together ... but television's another animal." Il testo l'ho preso da MacRumors.
