Another over the top comment:

"He denied paternity on his first child, claiming he was sterile. The other had to initially raise the kid using welfare checks. I have no judgment on this at all."

What, how can you defend that.

And he parks on handicapped parking at Apple campus, I'm sure the OP has a good justification for that, too.

And this...

"He lied to Steve Wozniak. When they made Breakout for Atari, Wozniak and Jobs were going to split the pay 50-50. Atari gave Jobs $5000 to do the job. He told Wozniak he got $700 so Wozniak took home $350. Again, no judgment. Young people do things. Show me someone who says he’s been honest from the day he was born and I’ll show you a liar. "

Less over the top than the others but still.

(Oh and for the record Steve Jobs DID NOT make the game Breakout. Jobs and Wozniak only designed the circuit board for the already conceived of game and that board wasn't actually used: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breakout_(arcade_game))

The article is doing a lot of apologizing for Steve's behavior instead of just letting it stand for what it is.
