Depends on how you define "hero."
^ +1
he is a hero in the sense he made a failing company successful
he is a hero in a sense that he paid out lots to app developers
he is a hero in the sense he changed peoples lives who are blind with siri
you get the picture.
In that case, I'm a hero.
I am a hero in the sense that I turned up to work this evening and fed a lot of customers, making sure none of them went hungry.
I am a hero in the sense that when my co-worker unknowingly spilt some oyster sauce, I cleaned it up to prevent an accident.
I am a hero in the sense that I locked the doors after closing up so no-one could walk in and steal stuff.
You get the picture.

He was Hero to me when he announced the $500 Mac Mini!
A $500 Mac??!! I was thrilled to say the least.
He was a great salesman
Well said and how I feel.Not a hero. He was a great salesman though.
A hero, IMO, would be those who place their lives in danger to save others / selflessly help others ( i.e., mother Teresa ). A person going well above and beyond - ignoring their well being.
Hero, is the wrong word to use in the case of SJ. He certainly turned around Apple, added creativity to products, no doubt about that. Not a hero though.
