At 50:23 is the first time I've ever seen video of Jobs on the worse side what appears like a genuinely unpleasant, almost confrontational exchange. He keeps his cool though, and manages to sort of shift the contours of the conversation. Really indicative of the time and place--can you imagine him having to answer that sort of question (posed in that sort of tone) today, given Apple's astronomical success?

His clarity of thought is what just astounds me.

I like how is go-to metaphor for strategic priorities is "the high-order bit".

At 33:30 into the video, Jobs pushes a powerful insight that many found hard to believe at the time:
"Apple can win without having to have Microsoft lose."
Maybe, even then, he had a foresight into how significant mobile computing would become.

1:03:30 is great: Jobs about mobile devices: "if you do email, you need a keyboard". Guess the iPhone wasn't on his list of future plans yet.

great talk from Steve, and awesome that it starts out with some Grateful Dead :)

I don't effin get this. Another blogger popularized this video weeks ago. I even extracted excerpts from that video and did three posts. The original blog was found here as an HN link weeks ago. But NOW it's news?!
