Having graduated from the University where Nolan Bushnell went to school I worked in the computer lab and there was a machine made with TTL chips that Bushnell built the previous year. What did it do? It was the first Breakout game. Where did you get your information about Jobs creating it? Like his statement, “good artists copy, great artists steal”, he might of stolen Breakout from Nolan. ;-)

You chose the screen name “LoveAndLight” then posted an insulting rant about another human being. Is it painful for you to look in the mirror in the morning and stare into the face of contradiction?

You’re really judgmental for somebody who calls themselves “LoveAndLight”.

Give up on your judgements. Particularly about a person or place you know truly nothing about. How certain can you be of any of these things? And even if you were certain, how can you judge without the motivations, without knowing all the details? We will truly never know any of this.

What we can know right now is that our own judgement of others is poisoning our mind. Show the light, show the love – forgive any sins, both of the imagined Steve Jobs in your mind (as you imagine him, while realizing that you’ll never know whether that is even remotely accurate), and of yourself. Forgive yourself for judging too. Peace.

This discussion is EXACTLY the problem with “charity”.

Why do people engage in “charity”? Even the very generic word itself makes no sense. You never know where your money goes, so why do it?
1 – Because it makes you feel better about yourself. Therefore, it’s about your ego more than actually helping anyone.
2 – Because it’s easy. Write a check, forget about it. If that same person in Africa that you *think* you’re helping showed up on your doorstep and wanted an hour of your time while you just want to rest and watch TV – where would your charity be? You’d kick that bum out!
3 – To show others how charitable you are. Again, pure ego.
4 – To remind yourself how others are off much worse than yourself. Again, pure ego. Makes you feel good much?

What kills me is those people who “donate to charity” don’t even for a moment consider their every day actions inside and around where they live. Do you forgive that guy who cut you off while you were driving your car? Do you send them your love? No. You swear at that “idiot” all while “giving to charity” to make yourself feel better.

It’s a full on ego trip. Realize that, people. As for Jobs, you judgmental ego tripping charity people are once again showing your true colors, even the most cursory search on the internet would reveal his wife’s charity fund and the fact that the Jobses only ever donate anonymously.

For most intents and purposes, in the west, charity is a cheap way to work off the white man’s guilt. A hypocritical ego trip.
