It has to be said that Steve Jobs great quality was learning from the best in a given field, what it is called now "modeling".

He had as a mentor, when he was kid, f*cking Robert Noyce: http://online.wsj.com/media/NoyceJobs_digits_D_2011100715195...

Noyce himself was a genius on its own.

And then Markkula, and then the president of Sony(that launched the Trinitron and walkman), and so on.

He learned how to learn.
