Jobs had no ideas. GUI, like everything else, was stolen from someone else. Apple and Microsoft both got big by stealing ideas.

Is it really stealing if you pay for it?

Xerox PARC had lots of great ideas, and then just never really commercialized any of them.

Woz had great ideas he never would have commercialized without Jobs either, no doubt that that was what he brought to the table: a pricetag.
