Apple has led the way in forcing the business world to realize that people want products that actually look good as well as feel good in the hand. We are seeing other industries follow suit (cars, appliances, furniture, etc.).

The fact that Jobs was such a dick about control/sharing/iTunes etc is a separate issue IMO.
Yeah, I really like that style of running things as far as play to your crowd and fuck the rest, but still think he is a douche, LOL
