Mind, cell phones aren't just products for African elites. They're tools of the masses; and they're effective not because of Government incentives or charitable work, but because the market ****ing works. This is just one example of how what starts out of as luxury product can, in a very short period of time, become a powerful tool for everyone in the world. This is why we celebrate the life of Steve Jobs; his work has transformed the world. Through simply offering a product people wanted, he has transformed and enriched the lives of hundreds of millions in the third world. edit: http://www.nytimes.com/2005/08/25/in...pagewanted=all <--- see?

**** Steve Jobs, those same products being created to "enrich" the lives of people in third world countries as you say were also being made in sweat shops from people in third world countries.
I don't agree with his ideas of censoring either. What Everyone Is Too Polite to Say About Steve Jobs

Hey everybody
I am sorry for having said "use your brains" / I mean, Yes, using brains is great and Steve Jobs was a huge brain and we all love cell phones and laptop computers, also in Africa or in wherever, like everywhere. I meant that the connection between computers and production of computers and world hunger is that computers take a lot of raw material (all those noblemetals Siver, Gold, Paladium, Aluminium, cupper.. and and) We, in the first world, dont work as miners really anwhere anywhere - it is not our industry. It is in the third world, the world stocket market fixes the prices for that sort of raw material, and they work very hard in those mines there, bad security, bad paid, children working, sometimes lots of pollution near those mines or to wash the metal out of the stone, the earth.... They don't get paid fairly, Steve Jobs and the whole other (and yes, there are guys a lot lot worse than Jobs and less brains than him and less genius) consortium of global players made so much money out of that business that hangs toghether with factories in china and raw material from africa and and and... and war also! I am not saying Jobs is an evil man - it is the system that makes men in the first world profit while men in the third world work under very bad conditions. |

I doubt anybody has a fucking clue what you`re talking about.
BTW its silver and copper and not siver and cupper. If you want to talk about the hardships of the third world why not start a seperate thread about that in "The Lounge" None of what you`re talking about really relates to music. |
