This is interesting because when Jobs left the computer industry, a large part of his life there enjoyed little specialisation. I remember reading folklore.org where Steve was hanging around when Hertzfeld, Burrell Smith and the like wirewrapped their Mac prototypes.
Now, Jobs has brought even more technical capability in-house, figuring that he had never needed to have the technical knowhow himself, but what he needs is ability to manage people, and recruit the best and then give them the opportunity to do something beyond what they would have been capable of on their own.
