The myth of Steve Jobs needed the actual genius of others to exist. Steve's gift to the world was recognizing and pointing out actual gifts tonthe world that would have otherwise gone unoticed or not brought to their full potential.
If Steve was still around, he would have taken Ronald's idea and had it rebuilt with a little polish and an exorbitant price tag.
There is no Jobs without Wozniak.
One hundred percent, but don't forget Jony Ive. The mythology of Steve Jobs is built on the genius of Woz and the designs of Ive.
And scrubbed it of any mention of Ronald's name before pulling it out onstage. Don't forget that.
