===You will learn much more about Steve Jobs (his life and work) in the coming months and years, as his biography gets published later this October and then SONY Entertainment Corporation makes its blockbuster film about him. Steve Jobs was a Geometer, he loved Design and studied Calligraphy at Reed College as an unofficial drop-in student. That is why all Apple products have Design in mind and why Apple's Design Team was an equal partner with the Technology Teams. That is why, even as a CEO, he has his name on 300+ Patents.===
