Bill Gates = $56 billion and Steve Jobs = $8 billion in 2011. Gates definitely the richer CEO, richest ever. Highly doubt there would be a Google if Gates' vision of a computer in every home wasn't realized by Windows and Intel. No mass consumer adoption of computers means no mass consumer Internet which would mean no need for Google search engine to be created.

Several problems here.
First Jobs is not as rich as Gates because he sold nearly all of his Apple stock when he was pushed out the first time. Its unfair to say that Apple might not have succeeded under Jobs more so than they did during his absence. At that time Jobs was focused on creating new innovations where as the Apple board wanted him to listen to marketing reports and the competition.
Second, part of the reason PCs reached mass consumption by consumers was the Internet and the driving down of component prices. Also saying because one created another that means its better is not the best path to finding a great CEO. Clearly computers needed manufacturing lines to be made in mass and power to be to used. Things of course where invented to make computers possible as well, or else Microsoft and Apple would never be...See More

Its been well published that Gates said his dream was a pc in every home. Google "bill gates vision pc in every home". The pc drove the adoption of the Internet which in turn created more sells of the pc. The Internet was around a while before it took off and when it did it was because there were lots of pcs to access it.
You can make excuses for what might have happened if Jobs didn't leave or if he sold his stock, doesn't matter history is history. Bill Gates is worth more than 6x Jobs.

Sign of a great CEO... when your peers line up behind you and claim that you are the best CEO among them (and not just by Eric Schmidt). We cannot deny that Apple is viewed as the most innovative company right now, nor will I deny that some of their innovation came on the shoulders of others. What most seem to miss is that the greatness of Apple rests on two levels: 1) developing new innovative products and 2) looking at existing innovations and making them better/more user friendly (Bic lighters work but aren't Zippos the gold standard?).
For the PC folks, let's not forget that Windows 98 was Macintosh 84 and that Windows Vista was a failed attempt at copying the original Mac OS X.
Also, let's not forget the Steve Jobs is much more than Apple. After leaving the first time, he founded NeXT, which introduced object-oriented ope...See More

For those voting Bill Gates instead of Steve Jobs, think of what the world would be if Jobs hadn't been there in the first place: we would certainly still launch softwares under DOS! The graphical UI of Operating System, the Mouse, the Smartphone and App Model, the tablet: all these were Jobs' vision, not Gates'. What an amazing innovator.

Gates saw the same WIMP interface as Jobs at the same place: Xerox PARC. Neither Jobs nor Gates came up with the vision of the WIMP interface, they came up with a vision to market it.
Jobs didn't come up with the smartphone vision: that was IBM (Simon), Nokia (Communicator), Ericsson (GS88) and Palm.
The OS? That traces its roots back to BSD Unix. The UI? Xerox PARC. Hardware? ARM. Touchscreen? IBM.
Jobs genius with the iPod/iPhone/iPad was the creation of a complete ecosystem (development, market, device, support).

I would have to correct you on that. The first GUI based PC (As we know it today) was actually the Xerox Alto (1973). It was not really made commercial, but it was heavily used internally at Xerox and a few university's. Apple's first GUI based PC was the Apple Lisa, witch was launched in 1983.
This is just another example of apple taking a 10 year old technology (Literally! XD) and calling it a "Revolution". But if you wish to know more about GUI history their is a nice wiki entry that you can check out here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_graphical_user_interface.
As you can see, the GUI was a mass effort that took place across the whole industry. Don't get me wrong, Apple did their part. But I'm sure the GUI was already well on its way, and would of done fine if apple didn't come along.

Just think how much further ahead Apple would be of Google if Schmidt hadn't been on their board and knew their direction years ago. I had a good friend ask Jobs at a town hall meeting if he saw Schmidt being on their board as a conflict of interest. Jobs brushed it off. Six months later Schmidt was gone.
If there was a glaring mistake of Jobs and the board, that was it. The same reason Winn-Dixie shouldn't have had Sam Walton on their board. Walton went on to get Wal-Mart into the grocery business, Winn-Dixie years later filed for Ch 11.

You quit your career when employers wouldn't run Macs? What's it like living in your parents basement?
You are of the opinion that "corps are penalized" if the choose another platform? How so? By not chosing the more expensive, intentionally proprietary hardware of a Mac? Apple chose to have their software run only on their hardware (although it is possible to run Mac OS on standard PC hardware, Mac OS's license prohibits this).
Perhaps when buying a single PC for a single person, the cost difference (say $600 for a PC vs. $2500) makes sense. That $1900 difference, for a company with 100 people is $190,000, or enough to hire 4 full time employees.... all in order to satisfy your technical preferences.
and yet, you are under the impression that *Microsoft* penalizes corporations for choosing to run Windows on whatever hardware the corporation chooses.

I agree to a certain extent but your arguments are biased in others. Apple is a brand, most people who buy apple products, buy into a brand or buy it because it looks good regardless of understanding technology, the low specs (seriously) or their need for the product.
Apple has innovated in certain area's, agreed, but in recent years its being suing people left right centre for silly reasons. Also all big corporations have robbed or used existing ideas and marketed them, cloud storage, smartphones, mini computers, tablets, mp3 players etc Apple didnt invent them - it capitalised on an existing market by adding shiny looks and an exclusive brand name. Apple TV wasnt the first, nor was a mac the first PC, there were countless others before it.
Also, your point '12. FREE' - HAHAHAHA!!! what part of apple is free? Apple ties you into its own chain of products so tightly, its one of the worst offenders here. Apple itunes, quicktime player, app store and its big brother like control over its products are not the definition of FREE. Want to write an app for iPhone, you have to pay. Want to publish an app, apple decides wheter its allowed or not, want to put music on your iPod - it asks you to install iTunes.
As for Steve jobs, I have the utmost respect for the man as he has carried the company and marketed aggressively, fought technical deficiencies and created a brand that non-techy everyday users recognise and buy without question.

Apple does understand the complexities of technology better than anyone. that is why it's so successful. it simplifies it so much, it's practical. if so-called pros find it childish, they lie, as IT people's lives depend on things breaking down, or they have no job.

Troy get you facts straight. If it wasn't for Apple there wouldn't be any PC. It was first Apple and then Microsoft. I do agree that w/ the entrance of Microsoft PC's became cheaper because more PC clones were able to enter the market (all you needed is a chip from Intel and OS from Microsoft) therefore more people were able to afford one. A dejavu is happening now in the mobile arena w/ Android OS although I'm still waiting for Microsoft to enter this market too. I guess we'll see if the business model of Apple will hold this time - it didn't work with early Macs.
You can compare people by how much they made throughout their lifetime or their ability to make a difference. You have Warren Buffet, John Rocheffeller, Bill Gates on one side, on the other you have Edison, Jobs and Ford. They weren't as reach as their counterparts but I bet you people will always remember the latter because they made a difference.
