While it's true Jobs was a pretty awful human being, this article is unfortunately littered with errors. Jobs & Wozniak weren't working on the Macintosh (that would only come years later, after Jobs visited PARC) but rather on the Apple Lisa. Furthermore, references to "chips" is highly misleading because it's obvious we're not talking about either CPU or memory. Finally, Jobs wasn't particularly poor (his adoptive parents were able to put enough aside to fund his college education and fund his travel to India in 1974). Jobs did however make a practice of cheating people - just ask the original employees of Pixar, who saw nothing while Jobs walked off with a billion dollars thanks to his financial engineering and complete lack of moral values.
