or Steve Jobs.
Know how I know you haven't read the Walter Issacson biography?
Seriously, my mindset going into it has been a genuine effort to understand the "cult of Apple" and to figure out why the Apple fanb0i contingent were holding candlelight vigils and such when he kicked it, considering that in the last decade or so of his life, during the whole iPod era, he was really a pretty awful person. Maybe I missed something early in his career. I'm more than willing to be convinced.
Nope. According to my Fire I'm 59% in, he's already returned to Apple and they've shipped a few iPod models and opened the iTunes store, and I have yet to come across one single shred of evidence to indicate that he's anything but an utter asshole. Brilliant businessman, no question. But an utter asshole.
There's a fellow named Trump in New York who fits that exact same description. Let's give him a stamp when he croaks, too, whaddaya say?
(There's still 41% to go, I freely allow that. But I'm also pretty familiar with the history from this point forward. That said, my mind is still open. But, man. I absolutely recommend the book, though. Fascinating read.)
