Anything the guy wrote was golden. You could always count on "the good shit" being contained within his works. He knew precisely how to appeal to us. And it doesn't really matter that all of his ideas weren't original. Again, "it's all been done before," and what really counts is the ingenuity of a product or idea's packaging. It's that packaging that can make the seemingly irrelevant suddenly entirely relevant and applicable to new markets, just by re-aligning perceptions. Like DIV said, he "bridged gaps."
