We learned a little more in depth earlier today about the touch and go relationship between Apple and AT&T, and the frustrations between the two companies. Well, we learned a little more about a touchy subject. Don't ever, ever ask Steve Jobs to change up his wardrobe, according to Gawker.
According to the earlier Wired article:
When an AT&T representative suggested to one of Jobs' deputies that the Apple CEO wear a suit to meet with AT&T's board of directors, he was told "We're Apple. We don't wear suits. We don't even own suits."
Of course, when you're the head of one of the largest tech companies in the world, you can probably go with whatever choice of fashion you prefer for business meetings.

Ashton Kutcher should look at Steve Jobs, because that's apparently what he's going to grow up to look like...

...but maybe the tux was a rental. In any case, his wardrobe is practically part of Apple's brand now, so wearing anything else in his capacity as CEO would seem disingenuous.

Shouldn't the title of the article be, "Don't Tell Steve Jobs To Wear His Suit?"
