Except the only difference between their innovations and theft are the words on paper called the law. Jobs and the engineers he purloined from Xerox would have had cells in the same block with Gates and the Seattle computer shop guys. And I imagine IBM and the clone makers would have been Ed Roberts’ bitches for the liberties taken with the Altair bus.

“Jobs and the engineers he purloined from Xerox”

Get real. Everything Jobs did with Xerox was legal and paid for. Xerox simply had no interest in their inventions and did nothing with them. They had every right to use them. Instead, they thought of them as junk and shared them to Jobs to use.

Your hatred of those that succeeded and got rich is well noted. Very liberal of you.
