what Steve Jobs did, he made them happen. In light of what came out in the authorized biography, it's sounding like that might not have been the case after all. It's not just that Jobs didn't come up with all the best ideas to come out of Apple over the past decade. It's that, all too often, he was fighting them tooth and nail, and other powerful (if lesser-known) figures at Apple managed to push them through despite. The implication is that while it might have looked like all great ideas came from one man, that was just part of the carefully-managed public image and the real machine driving it all is a whole lot of creative tension.
