He is the reason why Apple is Apple today; he made apple products desirable to consumer, from desktops, laptops, iPods and mobile phone. Jobs was always pushing his ideas and thinking about the consumer, when in 2007 just six weeks before the introduction of the iPhone he made his team come up with a new design. Jobs argumentations was that the face of the iPhone would to be glass instead of plastics because plastics get scratch easily and would a flaw of design for the users of the phone.

The World Wide Web was created on a NeXT computer. NeXT target was education and business. NeXT computer where very expensive for that market at that time, NeXT software is Apple’s core operating system today.

Money for Steve Jobs was not the main motivation for work, because he loved what he did at work, you know what they say; find something you love to do and you will never work again.
