This is so stupid. I wear maybe 3 different shirts and 2 diff jeans during my work week. Does that make me Zen? 
Got a tip for us?

As rich as Steve Jobs is, you'd think he has more than 1 pair of clothes.

No but I bet you're pretty ripe come Friday.
Didnt read entire thread but did anyone point out that bill gates should have enough money for a decent haircut?
Since he is wearing the same set of clothes since 2001, it is obvious that these are clothes specially manufactured for him that are just undestructable. Since nobody else wears undestructable clothes, we can safely assume that they are not only undestructable, but also one hundred percent dirt repellent. There is no smell.
(A more likely explanation is that he has an employee who takes care that there are a dozen freshly washed jeans and a dozen freshly washed turtle neck jumpers in Steve Jobs' wardrobe at any given time, together with freshly washed underwear and socks and freshly cleaned shoes, with worn out clothes regularly replaced by new ones).
Of course your interpretation that Steve Jobs looked "like a fool" is completely off the mark. If a man goes to the White House, the centre of power in the USA, and wears the clothes he likes to wear, not the clothes he is expected to wear by some minions, that just shows ultimate self confidence. This was business, not a social meeting.
He has minions. Its all planned. Theres a apple division for his wardrobe I am sure.
Please take this with a grain of salt, because I'm just kidding
You guys sound like a bunch of women discussing clothes...

Steve Jobs' wardrobe
I think for Steve it is a matter of comfort. Instead of wearing a fancy shirt / tie / jacket combination, he prefers to come out in more comfortable clothing. He comes across as a normal person as opposed to a corporate executive who is trying to get you to buy the latest gadget.
I do believe that if he ever did a presentation where he wore another set of clothing, I think people would begin to question why he did so and if there is some sort of significance as to why he did not go with his usual combination.

Brand identity.
A marketer is going to keep up brand identity. If you changed your logo or look every 4 minutes, you as a customer would get confused as well.
I think his wardrobe goes well with the products... minimalist and they all look the same and have for many years now. He also probably has about 365 black turtlenecks and 365 pairs of jeans, and someone at Levi's who stone washes each pair to his exact specifications... it's like that movie 9 1/2 weeks when Kim Basinger opens up the guy's closet to find an endless row of identical suits.
Yup, you guessed right... that's nude day at the Jobs mansion.What about leap years!
With the white iPhone being released, black shirted Jobs should do a Shatner-like commercial where he meets his good twin in a white turtleneck.
i think steve job is too lazy or too busy to pick up other clothes so he bought like loads of those the same stuff x100.
The outfit is made in China from material left over from constructing the suicide nets on Foxcon's barracks. It only comes in black, as you would expect.
