” Whether you like Apple or not Jobs had a major impact on the world.”
Absolutely. Computers Are much further advanced because of him.

Yes, indeed! If you look at his life story, it's full of major contributions to the world. Here's just one. His wanderings in Asia while young, in order to seek enlightenment. He studied caligraphy and learned all there was in different fonts. During development of the Lisa/Macintosh, Jobs pushed the idea of different scalable fonts and WYSIWYG (what-you-see-is-what-you-get). His idea, all his own, and it changed computing forever.

After close to 35 years, I find myself weaning myself off a dependency on Word Processors and re-attempting a return to substantive writing. Computers are and have been absolutely terrific at TeX formatting for 35 or so years.

Not true, but he is a Giant on whose shoulders we all stand.
