Also if you had a majorly obvious bug, you could email steve@apple.com, which he would forward to a VP, who would be fired if it wasn't fixed ASAP. Knew a guy who lost his job that way, so it's not just a myth. Steve really was like that.

The wrath of Steve was a real thing that people feared.

I remember reading that he would roam the cubicles in the 80s when he came by some engineer who hadn't slept for 72 hours and who had been working on a difficult problem.

Steve didn't like his work and yelled "This is shit!" and then proceeded to pull the plug on his computer deleting all the work.

Classic Steve Jobs.

Today we have a soy boy CEO and the result shows in the product.
