TopicWhat do you think of Steve Jobs? It's been 13 years since he died. Crazy.

Well in order to have a really successful business, you need both. Someone to think of and create something great, and someone to market and sell the idea. It's very rare to have someone who can do both.

If Wozniak had never met Jobs, he would have either slaved for some big corporation and made them billions while getting paid maybe a few hundred thousand a year, or he would have put his brilliant ideas out in the public and some other guy would have ripped off the idea, sold it to another company, and made their own version of Apple Computers without paying anything.

So in spite of the shitty treatment he got, Wozniak is probably lucky that he worked with Jobs, because otherwise he probably would have been screwed over even more.
