If you've read the book, it's no surprise to see "distort reality" written here. Still, it's eerie (but understandable) that the FBI dives this deep.

#14Wow, interesting. A background check was initiated by the White House in 1991, since Jobs was being considered for presidential appointment?? By the elder Bush? or Clinton? The check brought up a 1984 shareholders lawsuit against Apple.

#15EDIT: it appears from further reading that they're related to a bomb threat involving him at SFO. They're labeled as "misc notes on extortion at Apple."

Isaacson's book mentions that Jobs and Clinton were friends. Most likely it was Clinton who was considering the appointment.
