&98/ People: Steve Jobs

| View Comments |

He has been on and in many magazines before. It happened again: One face ahead of 24+ others and ahead of the rest of us:

  1. From www.wikipedia.org: "In 1972, Steve Jobs graduated from high school and enrolled in Reed College in Portland, Oregon. Although he dropped out after only one semester, he continued auditing classes at Reed, such as one in calligraphy. 'If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts,' he said." And we add: Not a single serious computer interface would have. Why different fonts for a command line interface - I mean for the interface itself? See how it all depends on some coincidences? Watch him perform alongside Bill Gates at D5 in May this year.

[10 additional faces not on Fortune's list this year. Well, #6 actually is.]

Have Fortune!
