"In 1990, with John Sculley's blessing, I left Apple with Marc Porat and Andy Hertzfeld to co-found General Magic and help to invent the personal communicator."
Sculley really wasn't the right person to lead Apple. He should have been begging them to do it in-house.
Sometimes the smart think is to encourage folks to do their thing, and if it's successful buy it back in-house.
