Bush Claims the US Government Helped Develop the iPod
Bush, a long time supporter and owner of the iPod, claims that the US Government actually helped develop the iPod.
During a speech at Tuskegee University, President Bush told his audience that “the government funded research in microdrive storage, electrochemistry and signal compression. They did so for one reason: It turned out that those were the key ingredients for the development of the iPod.” Apparently then, government research played a big role in the developing the sucessful technologies used in current iPods. Well, all I can say is that it’s sure good to know where those tax dollars are going to.
