Remember when bill gates bought dos and used his moms connections to sell it IBM?

Remember when apple was given their entire gui by xerox?

Remember when xerox exects threw what would be the modern "PC" in the trash because they are only good at collecting money and wouldn't know revolutionary technology if their own R&D made it?

I think Steve Jobs made the iphone by coordinating and funding a team of engineers to develop and produce the phone, then marketed it using his own name for brand recognition.

He could not have done it without those engineers and workers, and they would not have made the phone without Jobs.
