Jobs addresses the MobileMe team

via a DF footnote
This, of course, is only what Jobs wrote in the memo, which was distributed throughout the company and destined to leak to the press. Those Apple employees who are fortunate enough to work on the MobileMe team were treated to something extra: a 40-minute lecture from Jobs in Apple’s Town Hall theater, which lecture was, shall we say, slightly more profane. E.g. where the memo says “we will press on to make it a service we are all proud of by the end of this year”, in Jobs’s Town Hall address to the MobileMe team, it came out more like “You better f***ing fix it by the end of the year”. Paraphrasing, but you get the picture.
I love little tidbits like this and would have loved to have been a fly on that wall. I've had quite a few MobileMe problems of my own so I am hopeful for a resolution to some of these issues.
