Some of his "style" came out in the movie Pirates of Silicon Valley.
There are other tyrants like him that have done very well in technology.
What a sad legacy to leave behind.

Here's a story about Steve Jobs' style

They call him a polymath. But what would apple be
without Woz?

I don't follow the premise..
His servers are Mac? or his desktop is
mac?
Been hearing the, "it just works"
line prior to when I was forced to use a mac using System
7.something.
Ok let's consider that. But in relation
to having a Unix shell?
How does that manifest itself in real
world situations, mac fans?
-OR- what horror stories can be told
that were solved by using a mac? (apples to apples, pun
intended...)

I know a guy who owns a data
center. He told me he uses the MAC because he wants
everything to work out of the box and he wants the Unix
shell so he can do his job.
I think all of his
servers are CentOS &
RHEL

Yes,
I
remember going to TFUG meetings, and seeing some
TFUG-ers
showing off their iPhones, so there is no
denying his influence as a marketing
genius even over
our crowd.
You're talking to a
guy who likes to build his own systems under Gentoo
and
build/configure kernels. I linux that's possible to do,
but I can see how the
average Apple customer would
cringe at the thought of that.

It's hard to describe, but he was part of something that I
understood and was part of our history. He represented
something important and vital. It was cultural and
personal. When I first saw the add "Think Differently", I
knew something was going on.

If media did not work out of the box then he might have
tried Mint. Apple is the boutique of Computers. I think of them as the Picasso
of computers built buy a master. Linux is built by masters that put the eyes
in the same place as the rest of the world. Jobs Will be missed and I have
owned very few of his products. But I have always liked his
style.
