Niels, it definitely wasn't my intention to imply that Isaacson don't touch on these matters at all, because he did. However, I must stick by my assertion that the discussions of Jobs' motives and methods during this era is very, very light. This video adds a significant amount of color to the conversation about NeXT and the way that he interacts with the staff is fascinating.
So yes, he may have pulled some quotes from the players involved, but I feel that this short video tells you more about Jobs' operational methods at the time than the entire section on NeXT in the bio.
Thank you very much for your thoughts though, it is definitely a possibility that this was part of the material used by Isaacson, good point.
