> Since Jobs did not understand Raskin’s color scheme, he had an artist alter the work, unfortunately, for the worst. Left side, rigid coloring. Right side, chaos.

Interesting to see another datapoint on how an awful asshole of a boss Jobs was.

If we're looking for evidence of what an irascible asshole Jobs was, I'd rather quite the next paragraph:

"Jobs then ordered Raskin’s name removed as the creator of the work and placed the artist’s name in its place."

Without reading the comments on the article, there are multiple possible reasons for removing Raskin’s name. The article comments make clear that Raskin didn’t want his name removed. The other possibility was that he did want that, for example because the artist made it less functional. And then he might have asked Jobs to remove his name, and Jobs complied.

A person has the right to take their name off a work if that person doesn’t like how the collaboration affects the work.

The article makes it clear that Raskin wanted to be credited.

Wow.

From this new vector format it should be simpler now to restore the original colors envisioned by Jef Raskin
