    Scroll down to see the email exchange.

    I got a laugh out of this, but seriously Jobs surely has better things to be wasting his time doing. I don't know why this Gawker hack posted this up. At least Jobs kept his cool, his only possible misstep being the "freedom from porn" line, but even that's taken out context. The Gawker guys comes across as an idiot. Him and his wife like porn. Eh, okay...

    The gawker guy comes across as a complete hack, as so many "journalists" in the blogosphere do these days.

    It's gas that Jobs finds the time and motivation to answer all these emails. I reckon he gets a real kick out of the whole internet going crazy over every answer he gives.

    Lifehacker is quality - Gizomodo is grand if you take it as it is, more so than say techcrunch.

    The emails by Gizmodo to apple concerning the ''beer'' and ''spanking'' in relation to the employee who lost it was being a bit of a **** tho.
