Steve Jobs, by any definition, founded Pixar. He bought a team of people from Lucas Film and some technology, most of which had to be extensively re-worked. The technology he bought was for rendering hardware. The company, under his specific direction, went from producing hardware and software to feature films. Your hand-waving dismissal of the role Jobs played in Pixar is staggeringly ignorant. Many accounts from the key people on the Pixar team credit Jobs with his important decisions and his hand in creating the culture that Pixar has today. I'm presuming you haven't ready any of those. "It's funny how you pick and choose", or in your case flat-out ignore. How does making money have anything to do with being a better businessman? How does $2B in sales compare to a titanic company like Apple that's pulling down $40B per quarter? Not very well.
