Not to take away from Jobs, but if you were to ask me about how the 60s counterculture influenced computers, the first person to come to mind would be Richard Stallman (RMS), whose CopyLeft (GNU, GPL, Linux, etc.) has probably changed a lot more than Apple did, even if it's not as obviously visible as Apple's effects.

He even looks like a hippie!
