OK, right up front here. The bio box of S.Jobs by w. Isaacson is 20 (yes, twenty) audio CDs. And it has tracks every 3 minutes for easy book marking. My CD player is in a CD case that straps across my chest and so listened to them on transit, shopping, vacuuming, etc. Well worth it. Isaacson(author) had 40 interviews with Jobs over 2 yrs. and interviews "with more than a 100 family members, adversaries..." ...the works! Give you an eg. of small details: The ipad name was debatable as it sounded like "maxi pad"...no one thinks that now...it gives his personal life, girlfriends, family, and all his professional life...he almost comes across as a "brat genius" and actually cries with colleagues if he doesn't get his way! Jobs was "disruptive" in the Apple organization; difficult to deal with. But in the end you see what he gave and left us all. Cheers, a patron
