Running for Cover

摘要

Iused to use an iPod as a voice recorder, fitting a microphone accessory over the protective neoprene cover. One day, while interviewing Steve Jobs, I pulled out my iPod to begin recording. Jobs recoiled as if I had introduced something toxic into the room. His look seemed to say, why would you hide something so gorgeous? My translucent neoprene was making a mockerv of all the innovation and sweat that he and his employees had expended on visual design. Besides, he told me, "I think stainless steel looks beautiful when it wears."
