|
||
project. Originated after Steven P. Jobs returned to Apple as acting CEO
|
||
in 1997. Jobs immediated axed several development projects, including
|
||
OpenDoc and Newton that had been launched by John Sculley, the man who had
|
||
ousted Jobs in the mid 1980s. Now any project shut down at Apple and often
|
||
at any large firm connected with Apple may be said to have gotten
|
||
steved. It is usually spelled lowercase despite the origin. It is almost
|
||
always past-tense and used quasi-adjectivally.</p></dd><div class="navfooter"><hr/><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="steam-powered.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="../S.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="STFW.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">steam-powered </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="../index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> STFW</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
