Amelio was unfamiliar with the talking points that popped up on his teleprompter and soon was trying to wing his presentation.
阿梅里奧對(duì)講詞提示器上蹦出來的那些講點(diǎn)并不熟悉，很快就開始忘詞。
Repeatedly he lost his train of thought. After more than an hour, the audience was aghast.
他思路斷斷續(xù)續(xù)。就這樣過了一個(gè)多小時(shí)，觀眾都目瞪口呆。
There were a few welcome breaks, such as when he brought out the singer Peter Gabriel to demonstrate a new music program.
中間倒是有幾次讓大家松口氣的間歇，諸如他把歌手彼得·加布里埃爾請(qǐng)上臺(tái)演示一個(gè)新的音樂軟件的時(shí)候。
He also pointed out Muhammad Ali in the first row; the champ was supposed to come onstage to promote a website about Parkinson's disease,
他還指出了坐在第一排的穆罕默德·阿里。這位拳王按計(jì)劃是要上臺(tái)推介一個(gè)關(guān)于帕金森綜合征的網(wǎng)站，
but Amelio never invited him up or explained why he was there.
可是阿梅里奧一直沒請(qǐng)他上臺(tái)，也沒解釋他為什么在場(chǎng)。
Amelio rambled for more than two hours before he finally called onstage the person everyone was waiting to cheer.
阿梅里奧喂唆了兩個(gè)多小時(shí)，最后終于把所有人都等著為之歡呼的人請(qǐng)上了臺(tái)。
"Jobs, exuding confidence, style, and sheer magnetism, was the antithesis of the fumbling Amelio as he strode onstage," Carlton wrote.
“喬布斯大步跨上舞臺(tái)，自信而有型，魅力四射，跟阿梅里奧的笨手笨腳形成了鮮明對(duì)照。”卡爾頓寫道，
"The return of Elvis would not have provoked a bigger sensation."
“即使是貓王歸來也不會(huì)引起比這更大的轟動(dòng)。”
The crowd jumped to its feet and gave him a raucous ovation for more than a minute.
觀眾紛紛起立，震耳欲聾的掌聲持續(xù)了超過一分鐘。
The wilderness decade was over. Finally Jobs waved for silence and cut to the heart of the challenge.
雜亂無章的十年就此終結(jié)。最后，他揮手請(qǐng)大家安靜，直入主題。
"We've got to get the spark back," he said. "The Mac didn't progress much in ten years.
“我們要再創(chuàng)輝煌。”他說，“Mac十年來沒有什么進(jìn)步，
So Windows caught up. So we have to come up with an OS that's even better."
所以Windows趕上來了。我們必須拿出一個(gè)更好的操作系統(tǒng)。”
