Steve Jobs – Santa Claus 2.0??!
As of late, emails being addressed to Apple CEO Steve Jobs have actually been getting what seem to be curt responses that actually seem to be FROM Steve. You would think that the CEO of a major corporation wouldn’t bother to address the unwashed masses, but that’s exactly what seems to have been happening.
And it looks like today Steve (or whoever is playing him), has taken the next step from being adored Tech magician, to… Santa Claus?
Apparently a High School student who wanted desperately to learn Final Cut Pro, but couldn’t afford the exorbitant price for it, asked Steve if he could be made eligible for the student discount. The reply he recieved from an Apple exec warms the cockles of my geeky heart.

And this is the reply:
Hmm.. I wonder, if I write to Steve will he send me that 24″ iMac I’ve been dying to own?… Nah.
