And what is the problem with subjective personal opinions?
If you disagree with them, feel free to speak up, with your own subjective personal opinion.
Those ads done under the careful eye of Steve may have brought criticism (as Apple in general did), but they were generally very effective. And they had a feel to them that was pure Steve Jobs....like them or not.
- snowwrestler 14y agoNothing is wrong with subjective opinions, but the Invoking of the Name Steve Jobs is a needless appeal to authority. If someone thinks the ads are bad, fine, that is a valid and worthwhile opinion to share. We can talk about why we like or don't like the ads. But how can we argue about whether Steve would have ok'd them? For all we know, he personally approved these scripts 3 years ago and they are only now being produced. Presumably someone within Apple knows the truth, but aside from that person, the rest of us are just going to be grossly speculating in an attempt to seize the moral high ground of Saint Steve.
- robbrown451 14y agoWell I see no problem with speculating either. I mean it's a discussion forum, not a court of law. We're entitled to do so. I lived for many years off my Apple stock, bought when I speculated that Steve Jobs was, essentially, the heart and soul of Apple and that his return , and his cohesive vision, would make a big difference. If I held the stock today, or was considering buying some, or I was a competitor....this is the sort of speculating I'd be doing.
