It was four months ago, almost to the day that I first found and read the 2005 Commencement speech that Steve Jobs gave to Stanford University, but the words still echo in my mind on a regular basis.

This actually started as a follow-up comment to Abdul’s comment on my The PowerBook Showdown post, where I went through a list of the PHP editors I’d tried on Mac OS X.

It seems Matt is still ignoring the fact that anyone ever complained about this, as there’s no mention anywhere that it’s gone. Very disappointing… Haven’t we learned anything from the Sony rootkit crisis? I guess the answer is obviously ‘no’…
