Steve Jobs' FBI Background Check Released

What could possibly prompt the FBI to run a background check on Steve Jobs? Perhaps any number of things in the notoriously “think different” icon’s past (lack of license plate notwithstanding), but specifically, it was his potential appointment to the first President Bush’s President’s Export Council.

Jobs ended up being appointed to the council, which advises on international trade, in 1991. The FBI has just made his background check available recently, and it’s interesting to get a further glimpse into the life of the late Mr. Jobs.

Check out the article in full, with excerpts from the FBI file and video here.
