Apple says it’s not working on anything with Philippe Starck, John Paczkowski reports for AllThingsD.
“Prior to his death, Apple CEO Steve Jobs was working with Starck on a yacht” Paczkowski reports. “And this is very likely the ‘fairly, if not very, revolutionary’ project he was talking about.”

MacDailyNews Take: Steve Jobs once said, “There’s no yacht in my future.” Sadly, he was right, yet again.

…AND they’ll run Flash! WIN!!!
And that’s about all they’ll run considering all existing windows software will now be considered ‘legacy’
So no new mouse?

Sadly a poor ergonomic design, typical of Microsoft.
Though they did hit a home run in nearly every way with the Intellimouse. I happily used one of those for 10+ years until switching to the Magic Mouse.
If what he said about still meeting with Jobs widow is true.
I hope they complete the project
But are they working with Tony Stark?
EXACTLY! Enquiring minds want to know!
F*ck Yeah! Rocket powered virtual reality glasses and gloves set! 😀
Yes pretty much what I predicted earlier on the other related thread… or would have done if MDN hadnt insisted on me signing in to a forum I was already signed in to. Just didnt make sense as it was presented while all the misinformation to see the real truth was actually encapsulated within that article.
Wha?
This will free up Phillipe to work on “an amazing project” with Gizmodo…
Several hours before this denial was made, I posted on the first thread that when Apple employs one of the best designers in the world, it’s hard to imagine why they might want the services of an outside designer.
This story never made sense to me.
I miss Steve…
We all miss Steve Jobs. The company carries on with great products, but still it is not quite the same.
It’s most likely about a Yacht, designed by Philippe Starck and build in Holland/the Netherlands.
Starck hasn’t produced anything revolutionary for years. He’s not even in the same league as Sir Jony Ive, who I’m sure wouldn’t let Starck anywhere near his workshop!
