Jobs didn't really 'invent' anything per se, but what he did that was revolutionary, is make all his products work seamlessly together.... as long as you bought his stuff, and that has always been the allure of Apple to me, even though you are forced to pay double the price for that convenience.

However, as someone in professional sales, I can definitely say that Jobs is revered and always the 1A example for his ability to spin the most simple concepts, into LIFE CHANGING ones. The man was the greatest salesman that ever lived and that is a fact.
