Seems like every wanna be Steve Jobs completely misses the point of what made Steve Jobs great, but then use all the bad parts about his personality to justify doing horrible, stupid, crazy things.

Jobs was a genius late in life (sans on his own health,) but he also helped run Apple into the ground after early success. People tend to forget that.
Jobs never changed his vision - build stylish easy to use appliances of the future. What drove Next down was the same philosophy that made Mac lineup so popular mid 00s when the technology finally caught up to Jobs vision
I was more thinking about shortly before Jobs was fired from Apple in the mid-80s.
Its really hard to fake taste, but easy to be an a-hole.
