well then "name it" Elmo... i won't look down on you because of it...
she simply doesn't show up any any written or oral history of Apple
outside of "playing hostess" when apple visited PARC.

Elmo, you are losing it since you have nothing to back your statement up.
Name what Adele Goldberg did for Apple or Steve...
I think you are scared since it's probably something like... she wrote
out the name tags for the attending Apple employees during the visit, or
licked stamps inviting them. But other than that, she's a nobody in the
terms of Apple Computing History.

Nobody at Apple knows it... Steve doesn't know it... so what is this
"secret" that nobody knows but YOU?

Well, it's up to you to show that I'm wrong or somehow less well versed
in Apple History than you, so far... all false claims...
Step up to the plate and spill the beans!
Trust me, I won't shame you for it, I know you are a pretty weak person
so I'll be gentle with whatever you say... "She vacuumed the PARC carpet
before they arrived" or something of such HUGE significance.
All eyes are on you Elmo... nobody else knows your secret, do tell or
continue to play the fool.

You obviously have a much different view of propelling society forward.
It's to be expected, given your uneducated point of view.

My name is not Mike. And even so; an enthusiast is someone who
collects comic books, builds model trainways, collect stamps or
something like that. I.e. someone who is highly interested in a
particular subject or activity.
A fanboy is someone with such unreasonable devotion and obsession to
something that it impacts his social relation to other people.

oh, Elmo I think your imaginary game is fun, don't get me wrong, but
Adele wasn't much more than a secretary at PARC. Yes, she typed up some
manuals for SmallTalk, but didn't directly contribute anything to Apple
or Steve.
Someday you'll learn this, but for now... everyone is laughing at you.

good try oxford, but all those quotes are from you, and all those
quotes are accurate. you obviously didn't even bother checking the
links i provided, or you wouldn't make such a blatantly false
statement (i don't think even you're dumb enough to, anyways).

The little pinhead will never admit to his own stupidity. He got caught

Probably because he can't or won't get an iPhone to redact a critical
