Steve Jobs attention to detail is very impeccable. That is why he called Vic Gundotra Google’s vice president of engineering on a Sunday during his church service because Steve doesn’t like the shade of yellow in the letter O of google.
"So Vic, we have an urgent issue, one that I need addressed right away. I've already assigned someone from my team to help you, and I hope you can fix this tomorrow" said Steve.
"I've been looking at the Google logo on the iPhone and I'm not happy with the icon. The second O in Google doesn't have the right yellow gradient. It's just wrong and I'm going to have Greg fix it tomorrow. Is that okay with you?"
