What blows me away is how many people still put Jobs on a pedestal. There are countless anecdotes - well documented ones - of him shafting just about everybody around him, including his co-founder, who - graciously - decided to let it slide.
I don't think I've ever seen anyone put Jobs on a pedestal for being kind, generous, or morally upright. People admire him for his business acumen and technology vision.
We can admire people in some areas while also acknowledging their tremendous faults in other areas.
