That depends on how you define "right." I would disagree that he was right.

Kind of like Jobs, he didn't create Apple, just marketed it very well.

Just that, Jobs was never a coder. He was a poser. :donatello:

let me tell you what i ment by "right".
he was right when he said:"harvard connection is lame...".
So he started his own project by using saverins money.
but,when he realized eduardo saverin is out of the game and there is no use of him,he partnered with sean parker because he had a connection to "real players" like peter thil.

I guess that is one interpretation of 'right' with those events.

When I was around 12-13 I wanted cheats for a game I played. After finding them, I wanted to figure out how they worked so I did some looking around, eventually leading me to tutorials for vb6. As soon as I started writing my first "hello world" and "calculator" I was absolutely hooked. I ended up doing tutorials/researching almost all day every day for the next several years after that. The rest is hitory :)

When I first stumbled upon Dream in Code...when I first laid eyes on its glorious orange glow...when I was first insulted by douchebags in the Lounge...I knew, deep within the cockles of my heart, that fate had intervened and I had found my special purpose.
