Irony in deal with Pepsi is hard to miss By Mike Langberg Mercury News
One afternoon in March 1983, Steve Jobs, the brash 28-year-old founder of Apple Computer, stood on a Manhattan rooftop terrace overlooking the Hudson River. He faced John Sculley, the 44-year-old president of Pepsi, whom he very much wanted to recruit and uttered a line that's become a Silicon Valley legend:
"Do you want to spend the rest of your life selling sugared water, or do you want a chance to change the world?'' Sculley later recalled in his autobiography.
Twenty years later, it turns out changing the world occasionally includes selling sugar water.------------------------------------------- posted 2:10 PM :: reference link ::
