The no-holds barred biography of Steve Jobs has revealed that former president Bill Clinton consulted the Apple boss on what to do about his affair with Monica Lewinsky during a late night tete-a-tete. Jobs reportedly replied, "I don't know if you did it, but if so, you've got to tell the country." According to his biographer Walter Isaacson, after Jobs delivered his advice, "There was silence on the other end of the line." <img alt="" src="/imagedata/2011/oct/bill1.jpg" border="5" /> Words of wisdom: In 1998 then US President Bill Clinton was alleged of having an affair with his intern Monica Lewinsky.

Clinton said, "When my daughter was at Stanford he got in touch with me, and said, "It's hard to travel to see your child when you're President. I've got a place out in the country. You and Hillary can stay there and bring Chelsea and her friends there anytime you want to.'" "He gave me a priceless gift: the opportunity to see my child while I was still a very public figure, so I'm highly biased in his favour. Plus, even I can work an iPad." The biography of Steve Jobs is based on more than forty interviews with him, as well as comments from scores of close family, friends, workmates and rivals. <img alt="" src="/imagedata/2011/oct/stevejobs1.jpg" border="5" /> Music buff Jobs' love of music was said to be seminal to developing the Apple brand with Bob Dylan being one of his heroes.
