Well, you know what I have to say about this?
Gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble!
...anyway, arguing that Jobs is incompetent is folly, given that if he was actually incompetent nobody would be around to argue about it. That he's a genius is in little doubt, again, given his accomplishments - you only have to be one-in-a-thousand to be a genius, and there certainly aren't 230000 Steve Jobses running around with companies like Apple and Pixar on their CVs.
So you can argue about whether he's been obnoxious getting there or not - or, more to the point, exactly how obnoxious he's been. And that's the trick: It's ALSO not going to sell any books or magazines to say, "Well, this guy is a bit eccentric, and one time he was an ass during a job interview". Instead you've got to gussy it up a bit.
The guy's a human being, like everybody else - if someone dug through my history and wanted to make me look bad, I'm sure they could. But I don't think I'm any more or less of an asshole than any other guy. Don't read too much into carefully selected anecdotes, particularly about someone as polarizing as Jobs.
Personally, I can see both sides of the coin: His business practices have sometimes been utterly revolting (eg, outright lies about benchmark performance; intentionally crippled hardware) but his creative vision and - good god - restraint (eg, buying Pixar and then letting the company do as it wished) are beyond doubt.
So, there you go. I'm not sure why this kind of thing always has to end up with one 'side' winning and the other 'side' losing...
