"...And you'll see why 1984 won't be like "1984"."

Jobs is starting to look and sound like that "big brother" face on the
screen in the famous 1984 commercial, glasses and all.

For reference:

"Today, we celebrate the first glorious anniversary of the Information Purification Directives. We have created for the first time in all history, a garden of pure ideology. Where each worker may bloom secure from the pests of contradictory and confusing truths. Our Unification of Thoughts is more powerful a weapon than any fleet or army on earth. We are one people, with one will, one resolve, one cause. Our enemies shall talk themselves to death and we will bury them with their own confusion. We shall prevail!"

The integration vs. fragmentation dichotomy is straight from this script.
