As well as being one of the greatest innovators of all time, the late, great Steve Jobs was also a tremendous character. Whether at a keynote speech, in an interview, or addressing students at Stanford, Jobs was interesting to listen to, and his enthusiasm and unique oratory quirks are sorely missed by tech fans across the globe.
With All Things D's big conference currently going on, Tim Cook took to the stage to be quizzed by Walt Mossberg and Kara Swisher.
