Quote of the day: Jobs: 'The girl's got up and left'

by CNET News staff

A month before Microsoft's Zune goes on sale, Apple Computer Chief Executive Steve Jobs told Newsweek he's not worried about the rival music player threatening the dominant iPod because of its ability to share music wirelessly.

"It takes forever," Jobs said. "By the time you've gone through all that, the girl's got up and left."

He was equally unconcerned about the prospect of the iPod losing its cool factor as it becomes increasingly ubiquitous.

"That's like saying you don't want to kiss your lover's lips because everyone has lips. It doesn't make any sense," said Jobs.
