I'm definitely buying this book. Heck, I feel the need to buy it.
What a strong person Steve was. The man.

The last line about him wanting his kids to know him is simultaneously touching and disturbing. I'm torn because I know how important I found him and the products that he helped design and bring to market, but is all of that really worth it if he felt like he needed a biography to help his kids know him? I'm not sure.
I most certainly buying this book. But I can't choose between hardback or ebook.
I might buy both.![]()

It suddenly seems horribly wrong that I have a Kindle.Ditto. I'm getting the hardback for my library and hopefully the iBook version for the iPad 2 Steve designed. THAT iPad will never be sold no matter what.

It's sad, but it's reality. Einstein was terrible to his family, especially his wife. Would the world be better if he was more of a family man? The rules are different for the world changers and we shouldn't judge them by ordinary man standards. At least he recognized it and hoped an honest biography could put it all in perspective.
I'm sure in his eyes it was worth it, he left a legacy and his family will forever see the effects of this. Any parent feels as though they did not get to spend enough time, in the end when it's time for me to go; I will think of all the missed football games, PTA meetings, hugs and kisses that I was not there for. In the end it is worth it because you do what you do for your family, you just have to decide what you want for them.
