Apple is poised to release a tablet computer early next year, according to AppleInsider. But first, picky CEO Steve Jobs gets to have some fun driving his engineers completely insane.

The project was reset at least a half-dozen times... Each time, development was frozen and key aspects of the device rethought, retooled and repositioned...



... Jobs, who's been overseeing the project from his home, office and hospital beds, has finally achieved that much-sought aura of satisfaction.

That's the difficult, obsessive boss we all know and love! How about a few more redesigns, just for fun, Steve? It'll make you feel better!
