I haven’t paid a lot of time or attention to Steve Jobs, but I’ve never felt drawn or impressed. He’s never seemed likable to me, and I’ve heard more strikingly negative things about him than anything I think of as favorable.
Ya he was smart and made lots of money and so on. What I know of his career mainly sounds like he was the most driven and money-accumulation/business-oriented of the Apple people, and that we wasn’t a very pleasant person to work with unless you were serving his needs. I really don’t like that kind of person or behavior at all and disapprove of it and feel it is enmeshed with the patterns of thinking and “values” (and the lack of other kinds of thinking, values, wisdom, and compassion) that is greatly endangering our planet and the happiness and survival of much of it, at the expense of ever-growing corporate power and excessive wealth accumulation of the very few.
As for being a “great presenter”, I can’t be bothered to watch much of him presenting anything, even though I do work with computers, for the above reasons and because I tend to think the Apple branding and stuff is mostly overdone showmanship. I do like Apple form factors in many cases and the way they make reliable machines for people who don’t want low-level control, but there are many downsides to what they did and how they did it. Near-slave-labor. Proprietary software BS. Too many versions that make each other obsolete to drive wasteful upgrades. Etc. No amount of presentation showmanship will make a show to overstate a fake attempt to exploit and ignore the costs and negatives is going to be something I’ll think of as “great” except in a “great at spinning” kind of way.
