Mistake in AP story about Steve Jobs...

Hi all... I just read this AP story about Jobs having surgery for a non-fatal form of cancer. The story is here: http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20040802/ap_on_bi_ge/… I called the AP's office to report the mistake that you'll all notice: in the story's next-to-last paragraph, it says "In 1984, the company released the Macintosh, which was the first computer to have a graphical user interface that mimicked a physical desktop." I ** cringed ** when I read that. As most of you know by now, I'm a tech reporter for a living, and a collector, and thus HATE when the mainstream media doesn't even make an attempt to get this shit right. So I explained to an AP editor what the mistake is. I explained to him that the distinction is NOT a tiny technical loophole, but rather a glaring error that anyone who knows anything about computer history will laugh at (after they finish crying). I could understand a weekend reporter making this mistake, but in the story's byline it says the writer is a technology reporter. You'd think he would know the difference... - Evan
