I'm not a big fan of his, but the man is a legend for how he led the company and I wish him well. I know genius chief engineers like Ive and Wozniak are the true creators of Apple most successful products, and actually I prefer Wozniak's "vision" to Jobs' one, but I can't deny Jobs is a genius of its own kind for what regards marketing and brand and products image.
