And people still scoop them up like they're going out of style. THAT is amazing marketing and admirable business skills. The market supported it, he didn't force anyone to pay the premium. It's a free market economy, he can do whatever he pleases. And you know what, people are happy to pay the large prices for his products. Aside from his vast influence in American culture from helping create Pixar and many other companies, he had amazing IT and business skills that many other people should learn from. No man is perfect, but when someone rises to the top like that, there are so many things to learn and apply to others.

I am far from a technological guy but you have to appreciate his influence and skills from Pixar, to the computer mouse, to the ubiquitous Ipod and Iphone.
