Steve Jobs vs. Steve Ballmer, Circa 1996

With concerns rising about Steve Jobs' health (which naturally has an ill effect on Apple's stock price, because Apple without Jobs is much worse than Martha Stewart LLC without Martha), here's an old clip from PBS' 1996 series, "Triumph of the Nerds" (hat tip to ValleyWag.com for finding it). Interestingly, Steve Jobs today looks 20 years older than he did back then, whereas Microsoft's Steve Ballmer looks almost the same. Life really isn't fair, is it?
