Steve Jobs wanted to crush Android

The authorized biography of Steve Jobs, written by Walter Isaacson, will be released Monday. Pre-orders for the book skyrocketed after the Apple founder’s death on October 5th. Many sources are now revealing some of the details from the biography.

The Huffington Post reveals this quote from the book, in which Jobs’ feelings toward Android are made crystal clear:

I will spend my last dying breath if I need to, and I will spend every penny of Apple’s $40 billion in the bank, to right this wrong. I’m going to destroy Android, because it’s a stolen product.

I don’t know if I believe Steve could have destroyed Android (or that it should be destroyed at all). But I am pre-ordering the book because I want to have a glimpse into the mind of such a driven, brilliant man.

… and I plan to read it on my iPad 2. (Love ya, Apple.)
