Ryan's Reviews > Steve Jobs

A tragic missed opportunity, being given full access to Steve Jobs and doing so little with it. At a certain point, the cumulative weight of the minor technical inaccuracies led me to think I can't really trust the author's judgment on what has significance in the story. While a neat little (facile) package, it's more complicated that Jobs and Gates' respective personalities being synecdoches for the arcs of their respective companies.

And, I simply can't imagine a worse way to miss the point and fail to do honour to this specific topic than to edit it poorly (eg. it's aikido, not akido).
