On this day Ive was overseeing the creation of a new European power plug and connector for the Macintosh.
我前去拜访的那天,艾弗正在监督两款模型的制作,其中一个是为欧洲市场设计的新插头,另一个是为Mac电脑设计的连接线。
Dozens of foam models, each with the tiniest variation, have been cast and painted for inspection.
几十个彼此之间只有细微差异的泡沫模型在喷漆之后被展示出来,等待检查。
Some would find it odd that the head of design would fret over something like this, but Jobs got involved as well.
有些人会觉得奇怪,设计主管竟然会为这种工作操心烦恼,而乔布斯也会如此。
Ever since he had a special power supply made for the Apple II,
自从有了为苹果二代特制的电源,
Jobs has cared about not only the engineering but also the design of such parts.
乔布斯就不仅仅关注工程部分,还关注此类部件的设计。
His name is listed on the patent for the white power brick used by the MacBook as well as its magnetic connector with its satisfying click.
他被列为MacBook'配套的白色变压器及磁性连接器的专利人。
