Jobs on the Digital Hub and TV's
This Yahoo article has some interesting quotes from jobs:
"Do we think that PCs and televisions are going to merge? No. The next great age of the personal computer is going to be as the digital hub"
"I think you'll be seeing a lot of different things. We'll clearly be continuing to refine the digital hub suite of applications. We may have some other surprises"
And regarding the Cube:
"The Cube was targeted at low-end pros. We were just plain wrong on that,'' Jobs said. ``Consumers loved the Cube, but it was too expensive. This, I think, is a more stunning design than the Cube, he said, and ``it is priced dramatically less. The Cube cost over $2000, with a monitor, while the new iMacs will be priced between $1299 and $1799 when they start shipping this quarter.
