Steve Jobs: American Manufacturing Icon at One of the Most Successful Manufacturing Firms in History

From Holman Jenkins, in the WSJ, "The Amazing Steve Jobs Story: He ranks in the industrial pantheon along with Edison and Ford":

"What comes to mind now is a forgotten PBS show in the 1980s that tried to explain what was then known as the "quality revolution" in business. Interviewed was some wise old MIT professor who said, if memory serves, "Quality is love." Mr. Jobs's determination to make superb products was, one likes to think, an expression of love for the world, life and possibility." 

MP: As I wrote recently, "When we celebrate the genius of Steve Jobs and the success of Apple Computers, we should remember  that we are also celebrating the success of American manufacturing.  Simply put, Steve Jobs and Apple prove that American manufacturing is not dying, but is very much alive and well."
