McGraw-Hill CEO: Digital Textbooks Was Steve Jobs' Vision
In a conversation with Peter Kafka from All Things D after Apple's education event, McGraw-Hill's CEO, Terry McGraw, said that Apple's modern take on textbooks was Steve Jobs' vision.
From McGraw's interview:

-
Not a very unique vision, pretty much everyone thought about that. It was going to happen sooner than later.
-
And it runs so slow, makes my iPad 2 feel dated.
-
Selling point for the iPad 3 maybe?
-
if you ain't 1st, you're last. - Steve Jobs from the grave
-
Now we can just pirate and even push text companies will fail. Spit in your face MCGrow
-
Seriously - didn't every 3rd grader look at Wikipedia and look at his old text book and put two and two together? The innovation in digitizing textbooks has zero to do with the technology and everything to do with the destruction of the pre-historic business that sits behind it.
