I don't think these two men should be equated. While both have made enemies, only one was a toxic boss famed for treating people like garbage.

Not saying Jobs was perfect, but on the scale of evil oppressors he rates pretty low in my book.

I'll buy that.

If you go back to the beginning, I'm going to say that no Woz, definitely no Apple. No Jobs, Apples with sheet metal cases instead of molded plastic.
Of course it wouldn't be better without Apple and/or Jobs, because Apple, or some other company or companies would instead be the kings of luxury-priced desktop, laptop, and hand-held computers.
