Indeed - it would not be fair to laugh at #17, because Apple was a completely different company before the return of Jobs. You can hate him for many things, but you can't argue away that it was his sole achievement to turn around the fate of Apple when nobody believed in the company anymore. Who could have anticipated that?
To be fair, the Apple Jobs "saved" was the Apple Jobs helped create. Jobs needed this "time out" to get this priorities straight again. Although NeXT was still no success, Jobs did figure out again than you also need to ship products. That you cannot wait until you have the perfect thing.
Apple failed more when axing Jobs by also throwing out the culture that made Apple back in the day. The board and CEOs only wanted to play safe and not invest in new technology.
To me it feels like Apple has been returning to the mid 90s version of itself. The main difference is they are now huge.

#2 have become true. Who uses telephones anymore.
#17 was true. At that time Apple was quite worthless as a company.
