Jobs

Jobs accepted responsibility for the decision to delay Leopard, the next version of Mac OS X. The company pushed Leopard's introduction out to October from earlier expectations of a debut this spring, citing a need to move developers from the Leopard project to make sure that the iPhone is released on time.

One shareholder asked if Apple needs to hire more developers to prevent a delay from happening again, especially since Apple's bank account has swelled from its financial performance of late. And with that, Jobs swung for the fences.

"I wish developing great products was as easy as writing a check. If that was the case, Microsoft would have great products."
