I always thought that Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak were equals. Even the story started in that line and then it took a big departure from there. In his life time he worked with many ‘A’-players to invent amazing products and he had talent to pick smart engineers (and fire bozos). Apple as a company, it seems, was not for everyone. Some of his legacies
- Apple - II (with Steve Wozniak)
- Macintosh with GUI
- Ipod - carry music in pocket
- iTunes - saved music industry- tied with music industry which is a great feat
- Apple store - upscale store compared to standard computer peripherals shop
- iPhone - communication, music and photography all in one place
- iPad - movie, news and magazine - super successful
- iCloud - new place for digital hub, demoting Macintosh
- Apple - a great company
So many inventions in a single lifetime is simply amazing. And according to author he will be counted among the likes of Edison and Ford.
