Quite a bit of bit of "Pirates of Silicon Valley" is fabricated. At least I now know you are Mac Fanboy though. The personalities may be right for most of the people involved with the exception of Jobs.

First all modern OS's stole from Xerox including Apple, MS, IBM, and so forth.  Secondly the majority of Macs I have run have actually been slower when running similiar programs on similiarly specced machines.

I do use both Macs and Windows though and there are htings I really like about Macs but hey if you want to waste your money on a 999 Mac notebook go rigth ahead.

 

It is certainly not a documentary. If I recall, jobs (or some apple rep) called it "mean spirited", woz said basically the events depicted in the movie happened and that the portrayal of personalities was accurate.

Anyways, it's a worthy watch.

edit: ah, the Xerox incident is one of the events depicted in the movie.
