Indeed, neither of them should be 'remembered' like this. They are BUSINESS MEN
making vast amounts of personal money.
Its not like they've been through personal hardship to 'change the world' is it?
They've not dedicated their lives to providing medical aid on the ground in Somali where they are at constant threat of kidnap, rape and death or some such.
Its not about the death of a personality for me, but about the worship of Capatilsm/Money.
Jobs persuaded the Middle class they need his products (His own admitted business style), this made him very wealthy, now they mourn his passing like a modern day Ghandi.
Depressingly shallow.
