Oh for gods sake, stop. Psychiatry and the labelling of others using medical terminology is no better than the fourfold system of personality of the ancient greeks, except that unlike the Greek system, its being abused by corporations to make money from human misery.

There is no, repeat no, objective test for mental illness of any kind, and ascribing particular personality disorders to public figures is somewhat like celebrity gossip, but for psychiatrists. Judge the man on his deeds, don't put a pseudo-scientific label on him to denigrate personality traits you don't like.

Full disclosure: I never really liked Steve Jobs, but he accomplished an awful lot while (apparently) being a dick at times. So what? He doesn't deserve to be tagged with the stigma of mental illness by someone who may never have met him in the flesh.
