Everything you do in your life, sans that time you came on your face, is based on something that Jobs did.
The computer you just made that post with is because of Steve Jobs. MP3 players were around before iPods, but they were chunky and low capacity. Once iPod came on, everyoen had to rethink wtf to do. Apple single handily, with one carrier, murdered a super-dominate smart phone maker, and making smart phones much more acceptable to those who don't have an MBA. Illegal activity? Hiring more Americans? Sorry buddy, but America couldn't build a transistor radio without it burning someone's face off, much less build a complicated and elaborate cell phone. It is not about hiring more Americans that makes him a good man. I am by no means an Apple man, and I have never purchased an Apple product, ever. But I understand greatness and I understand what he did allowed the growth of technology and innovation here in America, something that has waved bye-bye to us long ago. He represented the last hope of America in my eyes, the last man that symbolized a Modern America. We squandered all of it away, and kids like you are the result.
