Why do people admire Steve Jobs? He was a cruel, demanding control freak.

[quote:Anonymous Coward 14518086:MV8yMDA5MjkzXzMzNzczMDE5X0E0MUNERkQz] People make a lot of Steve Ballmer of Microsoft laughing at the iphone when it first came out, he wasn't laughing at the iphone, he was laughing at its price which was 5 times as much as everyone elses. He underestimated the number of Steve Jobs fanboy groupies willing to max out their credit cards for it. The only new innovation with the iphone was getting people to pay the much higher price.

He was all of the things the elite love. He didn't give a shit about anyone working for him. It was all about winning, at any cost.
I find it quite telling that this maniac would be held up as a role model for kids and as an example of "success". I found him a sad, suffering and lonely fool.
I don't envy his so called "success" at all...
