Steve Jobs an \"a**hole\"
Robert X. Cringely, one of Apple's first employees back in 1977 and author of Accidental Empires, a history of the personal computer industry, says Apple founder and CEO The remark came in an interview published in today's Sydney Morning Herald. It's unclear whether Cringely was referring to Jobs 25 years ago, today, or both. He also explains that Microsoft founder Bill Gates "doesn't mind his actions being described but he doesn't like people to characterize him (say why he does what he does)." Cringely also says that innovation has been stunted since the development of the World Wide Web and that growth will remain confined largely to processors and system software, since that's where the money is.

so what?
Well if I was a billionaire I wouldn't be bothered about whether or not people thought I was an a******.
On the other hand, people who don't suffer idiots lightly do sometime get called a*******.
Steve knows what he wants and what he expects. Those who don't deliver would get what they deserve.
I'm just the same most of the time, except with out the money, influence or power :-)
