The most surprising thing about this is that people actually read Gekko posts.

I thought this was common knowledge.

I hope this means we'll get a second button on the mouse.

Yeah, but that will cost you another $500.

I thought this was common knowledge.

Really awful "journalism" by Yahoo trying to make a non-story into some major scandal.

Friend of mine who lives in Santa Clara saw him at dinner with some vietnamese boy toy.

It is pretty common knowledge up there. He's done everything but directly proclaim he's gay.

The only thing that really matters is Tim Cook's thoughts on being outed by CNBC. For those that say no big deal, if Cook thinks it is a big deal than I'm not sure how you can make an argument otherwise. I have no idea how he reacted but I can certainly see someone in his position thinking at the very least it is an invasion of his privacy.

Did anyone actually watch or see what happened?

At 1:00.

"Oh dear, was that an error?"

I think it has more to do with the lack of fact checking or maybe just throwing it out there. Apparently they were correct but this wasn't something vetted or thought out or handled well at all. It was just on air rumor dishing.

He didn't out him. It was fairly common knowledge in the tech world and no one cared.

Well, sounds like a lot of the American public and FFA population didn't know care, and still don't.

Fixed.

Dude is completely out. Has been for a long time. Anything said on CNBC that day was well known by a lot of people.

So you have sex with 5-6 men, show no interest in women and suddenly that makes you gay? Thanks Obama.
