"So what really happened?" Hertzfeld asked. "Is it really as bad as it looks?"
“到底發生了什么？”赫茨菲爾德問道，“真的有這么糟嗎？”
"No, it's worse." Jobs grimaced. "It's much worse than you can imagine."
“不，更糟，”喬布斯一副愁眉苦臉的樣子，“比你能想象的更糟糕。”
He blamed Sculley for betraying him, and said that Apple would not be able to manage without him.
他指責斯卡利背叛自己，并表示，沒有自己蘋果將無法管理。
His role as chairman, he complained, was completely ceremonial.
喬布斯抱怨，他的董事長角色完全是名譽性質的。
He was being ejected from his Bandley 3 office to a small and almost empty building he nicknamed "Siberia."
他被趕出自己在班德利3號樓辦公室，搬進一個幾近空曠的建筑，他戲稱它為“西伯利亞”。
Hertzfeld turned the topic to happier days, and they began to reminisce about the past.
赫茨菲爾德將話題轉向以前的快樂日子，他們開始懷念過去。
Earlier that week, Dylan had released a new album, Empire Burlesque,
迪倫在那一周剛發布了一張新專輯《皇帝諷刺劇》
and Hertzfeld brought a copy that they played on Jobs's high-tech turntable.
赫茨菲爾德給喬布斯帶了一張，在他家的髙科技唱片機上播放。
The most notable track, "When the Night Comes Falling from the Sky,"
最著名的一曲是《當夜幕降臨》，
with its apocalyptic message, seemed appropriate for the evening, but Jobs didn't like it.
充滿啟示錄的意味，似乎很適合這個夜晚。但是喬布斯并不喜歡。
It sounded almost disco, and he gloomily argued that Dylan had been going downhill since Blood on the Tracks.
它幾乎和迪斯科一樣。喬布斯沮喪地認為，自從《路上的血跡》這張專輯后，迪倫就在走下坡路。
So Hertzfeld moved the needle to the last song on the album, "Dark Eyes,"
于是，赫茨菲爾德將唱針移到了最后一首歌曲《黑眼睛》
which was a simple acoustic number featuring Dylan alone on guitar and harmonica.
沒有電子樂的伴奏，只有吉他和口琴，回蕩著迪倫一個人的歌聲。
It was slow and mournful and, Hertzfeld hoped, would remind Jobs of the earlier Dylan tracks he so loved.
這首歌節奏緩慢，感情哀傷。赫茨菲爾德本以為這能讓喬布斯想起他所喜愛的迪倫的早期作品，
But Jobs didn't like that song either and had no desire to hear the rest of the album.
但喬布斯同樣不喜歡這首歌，也不想再聽這張專輯里的其他歌曲。
