> 1996 was a full year for Steve Jobs. As head honcho at Pixar,
he
> was the executive producer of the Oscar-winning "Toy Story,"
and
> as chief of NeXT he oversaw the company's acquisition by his
> former creation and employer, Apple Computer. From the looks of
> his resolutions for 1997, the returning hero of Apple will be
even
> busier next year:
>
> 10. Take advantage of employee discount on a new Mac.
> 9. Do something about Guy Kawasaki.
> 8. New product lines: Bananas and Pears
> 7. Just Be. No, wait...take the Next step. Darn, that's not
> it either.
> 6. Increase sales by offering a free Buzz Lightyear with every
> Mac sold.
> 5. Make sure everyone knows that he's not the Jobs going south
> because of NAFTA.
> 4. Repackage leftover Next boxes as end tables.
> 3. Get out of that pesky education market.
> 2. Bring back the Apple III!
> 1. Tell Sculley to go back to pushing sugar water!
