Comment on Apple's forgotten founder still wandering in the desert

Comments

Counter point -

He was terrified of creditors, of debt, of risk - in other words of all the things that great entrepreneurs embrace and manage.

He was 42 and living with his mother at the time.

His role was to be the "problem solver" between Woz & Jobs.

He was to be the "respected adult" and provide guidance.

What if he'd blocked the development of the macintosh platform?

What if he'd blocked jobs from coming back?

Just useless after-lunch daydreaming, but my point is this guy looks more like a bullet Apple dodged, than a sure fire loser of billions . . .
