Steve Jobs did not create the Apple ][, Woz did. Steve was the
marketing, idea, friend of Woz guy. This isn't to diminish his place
in history, just to put it in perspective.

As to his creation of the Mac, I'd have to agree that he was the
driving force behind it, but not the inventor of as in the same sense
as Woz was of the Apple ][.
