Has anyone read the book yet?

Currently halfway through and it's very interesting, Jobs is indeed a unique character.
Explains a lot of little things about apple/his life, why he was successful and what made him different.

Megalomaniac. Overbearing. Greedy. Selfish. Jealous. Ambitious. Smart.

Some of the words I would use to describe Steve Jobs.

I wouldn't say he's greedy, he's just so passionate about his work that he comes off that way.
What he really looks for is to have total control over a situation and caused a bunch of drama when he didn't get it.

He might've not been the best at communicating his opinions in a soft way, but if I don't think he'd have gotten through everything he did if he was nicer.
