----字稿 (1)-----
Jobs’ infuriation stemmed partly from a fundamental conflict between Android’s open-source approach and his own belief in a closed, carefully controlled ecosystem.

“We do these things not because we are control freaks,” he said.

Addressing users’ concerns, he said: “They are busy doing whatever it is they do best, and they want us to do what we do best. Their lives are crowded; they have other things to do than think about how to integrate their computers and devices.”

“Look at the results — Android’s a mess …. We do it not to make money. We do it because we want to make great products, not crap like Android.”

----字稿 (2)----
Jobs’ well-known tirade against Adobe Systems Flash multimedia software may have had its roots in the 1980s. Apple had invested in Adobe in 1985 and they collaborated to popularize desktop publishing.

But in 1999, Jobs — after returning to Apple — had asked Adobe to make its video-editing software available for the new iMac but the company refused, focusing instead on Microsoft Windows. Soon after, founder John Warnock retired.

“I helped put Adobe on the map,” Jobs said. “The soul of Adobe disappeared when Warnock left. He was the inventor, the person I related to. It’s been a bunch of suits since then, and the company has turned out crap.”
