Steve Jobs’s Real Genius

Not long after Steve Jobs got married, in 1991, he moved with his wife to a nineteen-thirties, Cotswolds-style house in old Palo Alto. Jobs always found it difficult to furnish the places where he lived. http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2011/11/14/111114fa_fact_gladwell

What Kind of Buddhist was Steve Jobs, Really? | NeuroTribes

Kobun Chino Otogawa, Steve Jobs' Zen teacher. One reason I was looking forward to reading Walter Isaacson’s new biography of Steve Jobs was my hope that, as a sharp-eyed reporter, Isaacson would probe to the heart of what one of the few entrepreneurs who really deserved the term “visionary” learned from Buddhism.

Eric Schmidt on Steve Jobs

Everyone knows the transaction where the board sided with John Sculley and Steve left Apple ( AAPL ) . Steve sold all of his Apple stock, kept one share, and founded NeXT. Typical Steve maneuver.

'I Loved What I Did'

It’s tolerably well known that newspapers and magazines bank the obituaries of the ailing famous. When Steve Jobs died last Wednesday, the encomia appeared with unsurprising haste.
I last saw Steve Jobs a year and half ago. I spent an hour alone in his company while he showed me the latest piece of magical hardware to have come from the company he had founded in 1976, the yet to be released Apple iPad.
