Enjoyed the few times I met and talked with him over the years. Seems the vast majority (99.9%) of those that have bad things to say are simply hearsay.
RIP Steve
R.I.P. Steve

Apple isn't the same without you.
I thought that is exactly what he did with the original MacBook Air....Speaking of MacBook, I believe everything would be the same except for the 2015 MacBook, I just couldn't imagine Steve Jobs wanting to release a half-assed and extremely limiting notebook...
Steve said that to Tim because Steve knew that good artists copy, and great artists steal. Meaning the good artist can recognize greatness but the great artist can impart their own vision and make it theirs. The problem is that you have to replace Steve with a great artist which is nearly impossible. I sincerely hope that the leadership at Apple think daily about Steve's core values and ethos, what he would have done, and why he would have done them.
It seems that Cook is overemphasizing Steve's family devotion, but perhaps the biographies and movies are overemphasizing the other side of that story. In any case, it really shouldn't matter to those of us who watched his career, since his work is his legacy."And, of course, the joy he brought his loved ones."
What a crock... He was a deadbeat dad to his first daughter Lisa, he claimed he was sterile. even after DNA proved he was the father he didn't care for her until much later.
