For example, at last month's iMacs/iLife/iWork special event, Jobs several times alluded to Apple having released the first version of iLife "a long time ago". It was actually just four and a half years ago, but I think in Jobs's mind, even 2003 is the distant past.

I'm convinced this is because he only returns from a utopian world in the year 2207 to give us keynotes and delicious technological goodies. Then FSJ time travels back to go get us more goodies.

Hey, a man can dream can't he?
