The information released was based on interviews. None of it is substantiated.
One of the people who provided damning testimony was a jilted girlfriend. Another was a former co-worker. All of this may be true, but consider the source. |

I don't think anyone gets to that level of upper management with a strong moral center...you don't get to the top being a "nice guy".

Pretty much all of this has public knowledge for years.

There is nothing in that report that wasn't broadly known before, from his "reality distortion field" and selective memory, to his treatment of offspring, and his "generosity".
The only reason the press went after the FBI report is because it is now open season on Apple. (Without St Jobs at the helm, all that remain is a multinational that makes a billion dollars a week off chinese sweatshops.) A bit too late to be running "exposes", of course. And meaningless. |

So this is the government-authored version of his autobiography?

He experimented with drugs in his youth and may have used drugs while at Apple.
So he wasn't all bad then. |
