Must-read biography of our time, to both (Apple/Jobs) lovers and haters, from pre-baby-boomers to post-millennials, and their posterity. It's packed with intense materials and enlivened with the (well to less known) people, like Jobs' lived/worked to the fullest, fastest, the impossible simplicity, the book is never felt bloated and dragged to a huge volume. On Jobs' tantrum and reality distortion field, I learned few more new iterations from the book, but I became more appreciative of his impact. Pixar's story especially captivated me, Jobs' finally meeting Dylan was one of the most moving moments I felt from the book. Has Apple grown from "1984"s anti-"Big Brother" to "Big Brother" himself? One of the controversies on Jobs' control freak: "...freedom from program that steal your private data. Freedom from programs that trash your battery. Freedom from porn, Yep, freedom."
