So was this guy a complete asshole? Cause that's what people

Unless you made him money, you were seen as trash in his eyes

How is this even a question? Yes.
He screamed at employees. Asked for untenable deadlines. Would argue viciously with employees and then if they were right, would come back a week later parroting their ideas as his own.
He didn't financially support his illegitimate daughter while still naming one of his products after her. Denied his closest friend stock options in Apple's IPO, not to mention a lot of people who contributed early to the company.

Underplayed the suicides at Foxconn. Was enough of an egoist to attach his little cult-company to images of Ghandi and Einstein. Locked people into stupid propriety models and then claimed it was the technology for "creatives" (hint: all great artists MODIFY their tools).

He did a lot of magnanimous things too, but by all accounts he was an asshole. And the thing is: he didn't need to be. There are plenty of executives who have achieved what he did without being Bullies.

That's what I thought.

Shame that he'll be looked at as an icon/hero type when he was so selfish and cruel.

You forgot the not listening to doctors at first and treating the cancer holistically, then cried and yelled at them when it was too late.

This

And Apple continues today to prove to be the most Anti-Consumer tech company of all time. Soldering everything down in their laptops so as to literally be impossible to repair or upgrade yourself, the most blatant and insulting planned obsolesce of all time in their phones and tablets.

I didn't forget that. That shit's just funny.
The most famous Technological Evangelist of all time thought FRUIT and a frutarian diet was more effective than surgery.

Icarus at least attached feathers to his wax.

Yep! And yet how many Vegans and Prius/Tesla Drivers still buy them? I thought they CARE about the environment.
