Even if this were true, which I disagree with, it has changed the world. Just because we don't still use the iPod anymore doesn't make it any less brilliant.

They didn't just take the low hanging fruit. In the 60s it was assumed that computers would just get bigger and bigger. They had to take the highest hanging fruit that everyone thought was ridiculous. They had to envision an entirely different world. So perhaps they weren't more intelligent but they had a more powerful vision of the future.
You're probably laughing at similar people today.
