To me it actually had the opposite effect: after reading it I had a newfound respect towards Apple and Jobs. The book was honest and fair, I don't know why people think it does a disservice to him since everyone knew he was an asshole. This is coming from someone that avoids Apple products, FWIW.

That's the book that uncritically repeats Jobs' (completely bogus) claim that Apple invented the switching power supply.
