No. He was a huge jerk. I'd prefer someone who is just as brilliant and less of a jerk. They exist, I've worked with them and they have contributed far more to society than building over priced toys. Let's stop giving credit to this a-hole.
I don't know why this got down voted. It seems people don't appreciate honest opinions here. There's more evidence that he was a jerk than there isn't. He didn't need to be a jerk. His company doesn't contribute a net positive to the world. They haven't necessarily made computing more accessible especially since the primarily target a higher end market, and offer a very closed system/ecosystem. I stand by my argument. Steve Jobs was an a-hole and other equally intelligent business leaders who aren't a-holes could have done what he did.
