Sometimes it’s about getting the job done. People liked Jobs because ultimately he put cool things in their hands and better experiences in their daily lives. People are also often impressed by the turnaround he did from Apple’s down days of the 90s and the comeback aspect of taking back over the company he founded and was kicked out of to do it – Gates lacks that.
gates invested in apple. thats the only thing that kept them from going under in the 90s, not steve
I’m sure people will say nice things about Bill Gates when he’s dead.
I’m saying nice things about him when he’s alive. All of the Microsoft taxes go to Africa, whether they sink in the sands, or build schools and cutters.
“Invested”? No.
“In a remarkable feat of negotiating legerdemain, Apple co-founder Steve
Jobs got needed cash — in return for non-voting shares — and an
assurance that Microsoft would support Office for the Mac for five
years. Apple agreed to drop a long-running lawsuit in which they alleged
Microsoft copied the look and feel of the Mac OS for Windows and to
make Internet Explorer the default browser on its computers — but not
the only choice.”

More proof Jobs knew what he was doing.
