Steve Jobs biography describes his disdain for TVs

<article>
   <section class="page">

It had a tuner that would have allowed it to double as a TV set, and that didn’t sit well with Jobs.</p><p>“I just don’t like television. Apple will never make a TV again,” Jobs is quoted as saying in a Fast Company excerpt from “Becoming Steve Jobs: The Evolution of a Reckless Upstart into a Visionary Leader” by Jobs interviewer Brent Schlender and Fast Company editor Rick Tetzeli.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2896492/steve-jobs-biography-describes-his-disdain-for-tvs.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
