    what did Steve Jobs even do except for management and marketing, and why does he then get the praise for the hardware/software???

        Right, he demanded “NO FANS” on most products and caused all those components to overheat. He was a true visionary.

        He was a marketing and brand genius I give him that.

          well you try recording music on a pc with a stupid fan that won’t shut up….

          he did a lot of good and bad things… but more than “just a businessman” b.s.

            I volunteered at a university radio station a few times and was taught how to cut out AC/Heater/Fan noise from a recording using audacity on what I think was my second time going in. Recorded a PSA about cancer screening.

            It’s been almost a decade and a half so I don’t remember exactly how, but the point is that it was something they taught people effectively walking in off the street.

            I’d imagine it’s different with a non-constant fan, but you can force computer fans to a consistent 100% speed through a handful of different ways.

              It’s just a low pass filter. Since human speech is massively out of the frequency range of a fan, you can just delete that whole frequency wholesale.
