>> I was basically fired from Apple when I was 30 and was invited to come back 12 years later. So that was difficult when it happened but may be the best thing that ever happened to me. There wouldn't be a Pixar if that hadn't of happened. You know, I still believe that the computer business is in its infancy: that there's a tremendous amount more -- tremendous amount of innovation that's going to be coming out over the next 5 to 10 years. You know, someone long ago told me "Manage the top line, which is your strategy and your people and your products and the bottom line will follow." My model for business is the Beatles.

If you're even remotely interested in the Beatles, today's episode of The 404 is a must listen. CNET Audiophiliac Steve Guttenberg helps us out today for all things Beatles. To set it all up, Steve gives the three of us a lesson in how the band essentially shaped a decade of music and culture and how they became innovators in the way that bands record music. For example, did you know that it only took the band 4 hours to record and mix the song "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band?"
