Steve Wozniak just sent me this hilarious screenshot, from the wife of one of his friends. It's from the Genius Recommendations in the movie section of the iTunes Store: If you bought the PBS documentary Steve Jobs: One Last Thing you will like Hitler: A Career.
His comment in the mail: "Someone at Apple has a sense of humor." Truth. I laughed out loud. Thank you, Woz!

Update: No, this is not an April Fools Day joke. It's real, and it was found by Woz's friend Alex Fielding:
