A genius is a person who is capable of incredible leaps of understanding and originality. That's difficult to measure so we recognise geniuses through the work they achieved...the theory of evolution marks Darwin as a genius, and relativity does the same for Einstein. Jobs may well have been a genius, but his achievements aren't at the level most people think of as genius.
