steved

steved
 adj.,v., /steevd/

   [Apple employees and users] Terminated, said of a development project.
   Originated after Steven P. Jobs returned to Apple as acting CEO in
   1997. Jobs immediated axed several development projects, including
   OpenDoc and Newton that had been launched by John Sculley, the man who
   had ousted Jobs in the mid 1980s. Now any project shut down at Apple
   and often at any large firm connected with Apple may be said to have
   gotten steved. It is usually spelled lowercase despite the origin. It
   is almost always past-tense and used quasi-adjectivally.
