He's certainly head strong, and there are many modern cases of implementations that he didn't agree to (The app store, iTunes on Windows etc.) But despite his opposition and his ability to prevent these things from happening, he did eventually concede to them, stand up on stage and present them with excited fervour and ultimately sell them to the masses.
I suppose what I'm saying here is that Stallman too is head-strong, but probably needs to be surrounded by a team of rationalists to make his direction palatable.
People talk about Jobs like he was a genius, or the devil, or a god, or some personal friend. He was the head of a company that finds opportunity in tech-stagnation.
Also there is so much talk about Woz, I doubt anyone would really be interested in Woz if Apple went bankrupt towards the end of the 90s.
