Microsoft, gives to universities worldwide software (such as Win7 and programming software) for free. We get these..and I am in a small university in Greece. Steve Jobs simply enhanced capitalism by selling overpriced products!

You may want to did a little deeper and look past the "good deeds".
So you want him to overlook all the good things he dig. That seems fair.

He is a suppirtor of Eugenics, has publicly stated that the world's population could be reduced by 15% through vaccinations, and the Bill and Melinda Gates funded vaccine sent to India has been linked to over 47,500 cases of non-polio paralysis due to a lack of clinical trials. So I'm saying that this is a broad assumption that he was a better/good person because he's donated a large amount of money, without knowing some below the surface facts.
So because he gave money to a vaccine to help fight illness that the developers didn't properly test, he's a bad person? His involvement in this story sounds all positive, unless he was involved in the actual development/testing of the product.
Ok, cite those "below the surface facts." Bill Jones and infowars does not count.

Ok, cite facts that it's not true. MSM, the CDC, and WHO don't count. I have no idea who Bill Jones is and I think Alex Jones is ridiculous. Saying that just because someone donates money doesn't necessarily mean they are good/better than Jobs, that you might want to look into a person and what they are funding, is critical thinking, not conspiracy. Haven't we learned that from politicians? They say one thing and do another, but billionaires don't? They say they're for the people, yet their actions don't match their words, or their money trail. Yet it's absurd that Gates could be the same way? Do some research if you're curious, if not, don't.
Well how about then we read between the lines with Steve jobs. "Innovative thinker, a visionary" sounds right? How about the repeated statements on how much of an ass he was in business. How he never allowed any open source and single handedly ruined a technological advancement revolution, by putting fucking patents on everything and not allowing anyone to do anything remotely close to their terrible products. Steve jobs helped bring new advancements but he's no fixing knight.
Oh and lastly Steve jobs didn't do anything to do with software or hardware. He was a good marketer. He doesn't deserve even half the credit that people give him
And blatantly stole idea too, no less. Admitted to it himself.
