No kidding - Steve Jobs made Pixar possible. He had such an impressive career that "also started Pixar" is an interesting bit of trivia. Think about that for a second.
Everyone knows that Jobs didn't start Pixar, and most of the people here are familiar with Steve's involvement, but even his stronger detractors would acknowledge that Pixar would not have accomplished all it had done in Movie Making had it not been for Steve's involvement.
Evidently at least one person didn't know that, because my comment was written in response to someone who wrote that Jobs "also started Pixar". If the commenter had written "also a main driving force behind Pixar", no correction would have been required.
Would 80 years of mostly mediocrity beat 56 years with plenty of "best on earth"?
