Steve Jobs:
There are people 'round here, man, including a member of the press.
Steve Wozniak:
I see him.
Steve Jobs:
Woz...
Steve Wozniak:
The top guys, the ones who are getting laid off.
Steve Jobs:
Listen, okay? Last year Apple lost one billion dollars. I don't even know how that's possible. You were less than 90 days from being insolvent. I had three different accountants try to explain it to me. The whole place has to be streamlined.
Steve Wozniak:

Steve Jobs:

Andrea Cunningham:
[to the member of the press]
Joel, could you come off stage? We're gonna go backstage for a moment...
Steve Jobs:

Steve Jobs:
[to Woz]
I started with the Apple II team because we don't, you know, make that anymore.
Steve Wozniak:
Just acknowledge the top guys.
Steve Jobs:
Have a Mimosa and relax.
Steve Wozniak:
You will not blow me off right now, Steve! The tops guys are...
Steve Jobs:
There are no top guys, alright? In the Apple II team, there are no top guys. They're B players, and B players discourage the A players, and I want A players at Apple.
Steve Wozniak:
They are not B players, and I'm a better judge at that!
Steve Jobs:
Less than 90 days from insolvency, and part because somebody thought the Newton wasn't a box of garbage.
Andrea Cunningham:
Joel, could you come off...
Steve Jobs:
Leave him!
Steve Wozniak:
I'm talking about...
Steve Jobs:

Steve Wozniak:
I'm talking about the Apple II! Which is not just a crucial part of this company's history; it is a crucial part of the history of personal computing!
Steve Jobs:
For a time!
Steve Wozniak:
The least you could do if you're going to downsize these people...
Steve Jobs:
They're gonna live in the biggest houses of anyone on the unemployment list.
Steve Wozniak:
...is to acknowledge them! Acknowledge them and the Apple II during this launch!
