I think the most interesting thing about him, was how all the big-wigs treated him like an ignorant kid over his head, and then he managed to come back and wrest back control over the company he founded - and build it into a powerhouse. He was no ignorant kid. That's somewhat lost on a lot of Apple-haters. There are plenty of jerks (arrogant like Jobs), who can't be successful because they don't have the creativity of Jobs. And others like Gates who simply steal and cheat instead of create.
I thought Jobs himself said he was kind of ignorant the first time around.
