50 Cent is entering the world of technology and is currently in negotiations with Apple's CEO Steve Jobs to produce a line of affordable home computers to inner-city residents. According to a recent article in Forbes, 50 Cent, born Curtis Jackson and his high powered manager Chris Lighty, of Violator management are negotiating the branding deal with the computer/software giant. "I'm creating a foundation that will be around for a long time, because fame can come and go or get lost in the lifestyle and the splurging," Fifty Cent explained to Forbes. "I never got into it for the music. I got into it for the business." The company hopes to close the gap between sales in iPods, which have earned over $3 billion verse $2 billion from software and personal home computer sales. Behind Jobs' leadership and the runaway success of the iPod and iTunes, Apple controls over 80% of the digital music market. \[All Hip Hop\] For more info, see the [full story](http://www.allhiphop.com/hiphopnews/?ID=5798&ref=protein.xyz).
