That one yes, though it was not actually Apple's design he did demonstrate it I believe.

Jobs was forced out of the lisa more than a year before release and went to work on the other Apple project at the time (project which you might have heard of)

Involved neither Jobs nor Woz.

You can hang the ROKR to his neck, and the Apple /// and the Lisa if you stretch reality a lot, but the rest makes absolutely no sense at all.

It's interesting that you didn't mention NeXT though: it failed technically (never succeeded on its own), but managed to lead to an acquisition and most NeXT people took control position at Apple.

I like to joke that, in reality, Apple was acquired by NeXT for minus 400 million.
