[DM-MUG] Macintosh creator Jef Raskin dies at 61

[Bill Davis]

Actually, to be fair, while Jef started the Mac project, he and Steve J 
didn't get along.  Steve took the Mac project over.  Jef left.  The Mac 
as it stands isn't really the Mac as Jef envisioned it (I get the 
impression that the Canon Cat was more how Jef envisioned it.)  So 
don't rag on Steve too much....the Mac you know and love is here at 
least equally if not more because of Steve than Jef.
