Sadly all the things listed are also what a complete control freak would do and that's exactly what Jobs is (by his own admission). The truth about Steve Jobs, from someone whose read every book in existence about him, is that he's a perfectionist who believes in his vision above all else. Most of the time that means great products. Some of the time that means dictatorial edicts that border on insanity. To give one example. People forget the original Macintosh was essentially a failure under Jobs. He refused to include an internal fan or a Hard Drive because he felt they were too loud. In fact, he wouldn't even plan for the hard drive. So you got a machine that was prone to component failure (no fan) and whose first external hard drive had to connect over the slow serial port (intended for an additional floppy). Only after Jobs left Apple were both these things addressed (and the Mac was a huge success after that)
