I want to know more about Steve Jobs.  Can you tell me about him?

Sure, I’d be happy to.  He was a brilliant visionary who led Apple during a time of dramatic growth.  After he left Apple in 1985, he went on to found NeXT, and then returned to Apple in 1996.  His career was marked by many innovations, but my favorite is “The Daring Fireball” weblog, which featured contributions by people from around the world, discussing Apple and technology in general.

I saw him on tv introducing the first iphone.  Was he sick then?
user
No, he wasn’t sick then.  He passed away in 2011.

What college did he graduate from?
user
He did not graduate from college.  He was kicked out of Reed College after one year because he was too smart and disruptive, and then he went on to learn on his own.
assistant
That was interesting.  I thought he graduated from MIT.
user
No, it was Reed.  But you’re right that he was a graduate of the MIT Sloan School of Management.  After NeXT was sold to Apple in 1996, he did work as an advisor to the company.
assistant
No, Steve Jobs had never attended MIT.
