No, he won't. And I think you know that if you stop and think about it. Bill or Larry or Sam or people like that fit that category. However, Steve Jobs might have been the only one who gave a %!&#% about his products: what they did, how they worked and what people could do with them.

As an entrepreneur, he founded the now largest company on the planet, founded a company that sold for $400m, and took Pixar from almost nothing to a $7bn acquisition by Disney.

As an inventor, he's the main name (though with significant help and industrial design by others) behind the iMac, iPod, iPad, iPhone - all dominant leaders in their respective sectors.

It's curious that you'd put Larry Ellison's achievements above all of that.
