Time to Stand Up for Steve Jobs

Anybody remember what happened the first time Jobs left Apple? 1986 or so, Sculley forced him out...Jobs returned 10 years later in an acquisition. Did the stock drop or go up?

I dont think I can name a company who is so clearly identified with its CEO. That is not the responsibility of Wall Street. This is a guy who is treated with bona fide celebrity. Apple has done very well on the strength of Steve Jobs personality...but there is a downside.
