Wired: "Apple's CEO Steve Jobs and the Macintosh are inextricably linked in the minds of most people. So it may come as a surprise to learn the Mac wasn't his idea at all." [Scripting News]

This is a nice story and it may be true. But I find it hard to swallow. My problem is what these two men did before and after the Macintosh. While Steve Jobs created Apple, Next, took Pixar to its prominent position in animation films and, last but not least, took over Apple to save it, Raskin was unknown before and after the Mac. I don't doubt he is a brilliant, creative guy, but it seems to me he failed to create the computer he envisioned, while Jobs created or participated in at least three computer projects that delivered a product. That Jobs had to take over Raskin project seems more of an accident... The Macintosh is clearly Lisa 2.0...
