he was forcibly removed from his position and couldn't set anything up. Wasn't NeXT set up by Steve Jobs in 1985, around the time he was removed from Apple?

- Zev 18y agoHe couldn't set anything up within Apple. Obviously he was free to do what he wanted outside of Apple. Honest question for you: Were you nitpicking for the hell of it, or honestly confused as to what I meant?
- whatusername 18y agoI think he's trying to say: In '85 - Jobs couldn't really do any succession planning / future products / directions / etc... So he didn't set anything up for apple (unless you count the fact that long term they bought NeXT etc etc) In '08 - Jobs will be sorely missed. The WWJD (What would Jobs Do?) question will be asked around apple for years to come
