Jobs' autograph up for bid Whose autograph is more valuable, the "father of our country" or the co-father of our Apples? Seems like a no-brainer, but evidently more of us need to get our brains checked. The signature of Steve Jobs has been up for sale on e-Bay and is fetching bids of more than $800. By comparison, George Washington's John Hancock usually goes for $500 to $1,000. Of course, the premier president didn't ink his name on the premier issue of Macworld magazine. Jobs did, and that fact has probably pushed up the bidding for his handiwork. Autograph hounds on a budget might want to check out Bill Gates. A signed copy of his book "The Road Ahead" is going for about $25.
