iCon : Steve Jobs


It was not very long ago that I was reading iCon, a book on Steve Jobs ( though unauthorized, I thought it might kjust be good past-time ). Well it seems the past is not all goody-goody for him. He has had the most eventful life I have ever seen. Now it is kinda true that Steve Jobs wasn’t into programming and stuff but he has done a wonderful job marketing the software that Apple made. His attitude towards technology is nothing but infective. You listen to him and you want to do something great. He is and was a figure that would get whatever he wants and would exopect only perfect results, and I am not criticising him. His persuassion powers did wonderful things for Apple in those early years. Though Steve Jobs has marked iCon as an unauthorized version of his biography, it is surely worth a read. He is the ultimate source of passsion and motivation. OK so he didn’t design the Mac but he was the driving power behind it and has made it what it is today. So hats off to you, Steve !
