Oh yes, he was joking and slamming Michael Eisner ( of Disney) at the same time as being old and out of touch. Really pretty funny and fairly "inside" but it wasn't broadcast tv and the most of the folks in the audience knew what was going on. Eisner accused Jobs of promoting music theft (apple commercial used the word "rip") during a spat between Pixar (Jobs other company) and Disney. Eisner revealed himself to be a dolt and a weasel, steve was poking fun at him. I sure would love to have a fruit smoothie with steve some day and just listen to him let loose.
