I have accomplished something many Apple & Steve Jobs’ fans weren’t able to. I was able to pull up my Mercedes right behind Steve Jobs’ Mercedes at his home in Palo Alto, California.

I call it is an accomplishment because Steve Jobs, was not just any CEO. He was a rock star. The rock star co-founder of Apple (AAPL), the greatest company in the world. When he was alive it was practically impossible to pull up your car next to his. His discreet security detail would have prevented that from happening.

That was because everybody wanted a piece of him. Heads of nations, ceos, celebrities, media, entrepreneurs, community organizations all wanted a piece of him. Hence it was not possible to get close to him, let alone to pull up behind him, and in front of his house at that.

In fact, you still really can’t, just pull up behind his car, which is parked in the same spot where he last parked it. His security team, always kind as ever, gave me special permission to do so for this picture. When I asked how things were, the security agent shared with me that, 600 people from all over the world still visit Steve Jobs home everyday, to take pictures and to pay homage to the Great One.
