Do you have links which says that "a computer in every home" is Jobs' vision? Google search throws up Bill Gates. There is even a plaque for it http://www.flick

Though I believe that there are others who should also be remembered, but I am of the opinion that rightly or wrongly history will remember and associate Gates with computers much like Edison is to lightbulbs, Wright is to planes and Bell is to telephones (this is what kids are still being taught)
- pbreit 14y agoWe will see. Apple made the first widely used home computer and its "computer on every desk" predates Microsoft's "computer on every desk and in every home" (no surprise that Microsoft co-opted Apple's vision here). I have a hard time believing that someone will be remembered for "computers" when he didn't even make them (same for Gates' involvement for whatever eventually happens with malaria since the one thing for certain is that Gates will not have been the one to eradicate it).
