What Pixar would be like without Steve Jobs
Pixar Animation Studios, the former amination division of Lucasfilms Ltd. One can wonder what they would be like without Steve Jobs, co-founder of Apple Inc. Some say his purchase of Pixar was one of the best things to happen to Pixar. Others say they were better without him.
Steve P. Jobs bought Pixar for $5,000,000 in Feb 1986. With this purchase, he helped with the funding for projects going on at the time, and for the future featured films like Toy Story. With this funding, Pixar was able to produce more movies and shorts, which got them on newspapers and on TV.
In my opinion, I think it was a good idea for Steve Jobs to buy Pixar. This is because, with him, they had more money, and were able to produce more shorts and eventually movies. Pixar also made Steve Jobs lose some money to start, but eventually when he re-joined Apple in 1996, where he got all his money back, and kept Pixar running.

Advice
Steve Jobs was witty, different, goofy and elegant. That’s why he did such a well job with what he did. Of course, you don’t want all of his qualities (like his drug habits in the 70s) if you’re trying to be famous or make mass-distributed art (the Macintosh being the first example). But you have to be goofy sometimes. Be different. Do think in an unnormal way. You can’t be generic with life. A generic life is boring. Go out and catch the world, it’s everyone’s oyster :)

Here’s to the Crazy One.
The misfit. The rebel. The troublemaker. The round peg in the square hole.
The One Who Saw Things Differently.
He wasn’t fond of rules. And he had no respect for the status quo.
You can quote him, disagree with him, glorify or vilify him. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore him. Because he changed things.
He pushed the human race forward. And while some may have seen him as the crazy one, we saw genius.
