People stereotype people. For instance I am just fine with Gates but sort of don't much like Jobs(don't hate though, or maybe I do).

I love my Mac and hate Windows(though MS is credited with many others to put computer in the hands of many people).

I can't stand anything written/said by GrubIgler but that doesn't make them &&&& and morons. They have a huge following, they must be good.

This is how it works.

I am sure all are(were) good.

Good at what is the question. Not levelling anything at them specifically, but there are plenty of people with large followings that are basically 'good' at getting large followings and making money off of them (e.g. tele-vangelists).
>>Good at what is the question.

Good at whatever the people following them liked in them or found worth the attention. It can be anything - good voice, other skills or just the looks. Anything. It depends on the person following what good was in the guy he/she follows.
