In the movie, he just comes off as a petty and demanding micro-manager that contributes mostly trivial "cheesy" ideas to the product after all the real work has been mostly accomplished by others.

By the way, Diogenes, when YOU have steered a company from near bankruptcy to the largest corporation in the world in just ten years, get back to us with your criticisms of the "genius" of Steve Jobs. . . they we MIGHT give you some gravitas to you arguments that he did not contribute anything or did not accomplish anything. . . and that his contributions were "trivial cheesy ideas" to the product after the real work had been mostly accomplished by others." Get cracking on building your world changing organizations.

By the way, i must be the you refer to as "he who is not a Dentist," but I have ALSO been a CEO. . . and I am willing to bet you have not been anything of the kind.

In our modern world Steve Jobs was like Julius Caesar was in the ancient world, "Why, man, he doth bestride the narrow world Like a Colossus, and we petty men Walk under his huge legs and peep about To find ourselves dishonourable graves." and you, Diogenes, are certainly one of those petty men, who chooses to denigrate the man when he is dead.

And so his accomplishments are so great that you can't name one of them?

I guess i'll just have to put him in the "Bill Gates" category of "Genius".
