I'd expected to see him in the top ten for sure.

What happened to Nikola Tesla? One day...

I suggest that since those who make these lists up seem to be loonies, we make lists of those who make lists. I'm still reeling from learning that living in the US is apparently more dangerous and horrible that living on the surface of Venus. These uncontrolled listers are clearly a danger to us all, as well as having too damn much free time.

There's no accounting for dis array.

They put Woz at 42 but Jobs at 15? I'm completely disgusted. Woz is what brought apple to amounting to anything, jobs just carried it back after he messed it all up. I hate apple in general myself, but Woz actually knew what he was doing, Jobs is just a prat.

WHO THE HELL ARE THESE PEOPLE?!?!?!

Funny how "Mr Marketing" Steve Jobs gets in so high up on a list of technical achievers when Wozniak, the real Apple techie is so far down.

There's a few cases that can be argued on this list, but none as glaring as this.

What are they doing on this list? All they've ever done is take other people's ideas and wrap adverts around them.

Hi, Well,they forgot one big,big name: Nikola Tesla. If you do not know who it is check on Wiki. By the way he was inventer of radio and not Marconi. That and many other things. If I tell you that on his death in New York, his appartement was seized by FBI and everything taken to certain area ....

Bill Gates gives a rat's ass about these lists. and neway 70% of the voters possibly dint vote for bill gates who think they will look uncool or will be betrayers of their open sauce creed.

So What happened to Paul Allen then....
