freddy is exactly right.. Steve was very smart in using/marketing other people's inventions.. that with his contribution wouldn't be such a success. from Wikipedia: "Jobs returned to his previous job at Atari and was given the task of creating a circuit board for the game Breakout. According to Atari founder Nolan Bushnell, Atari had offered $100 for each chip that was eliminated in the machine. Jobs had little interest or knowledge in circuit board design and made a deal with Wozniak to split the bonus evenly between them if Wozniak could minimize the number of chips. Much to the amazement of Atari, Wozniak reduced the number of chips by 50, a design so tight that it was impossible to reproduce on an assembly line. According to Wozniak, Jobs told Wozniak that Atari had only given them $700 (instead of the actual $5,000) and that Wozniak's share was thus $350"
that was the attitude of the man, but still is the genius that made possible things that we all need every day. Obama today said "here may be no greater tribute to Steve’s success than the fact that much of the world learned of his passing on a device he invented" or stealed? but he did it, and we owe him, even if we paid huge money for those devices, making him and his company immensely rich, more than necessary. even if the company underpaid work (I worked for Apple, and I know about, but I mean Foxconn and so on), but all the companies do that.
the man was not a saint, but a sinner, but still a genius. and life stole him around 30 years, so he paid for his sins. RIP Steve.
