Default Rip Steve Jobs



Apple - Remembering Steve Jobs

Apple wouldn't be where it is today without you, and all the other things that you touched and turned to magic.

I''m almost as saddened when the time Jim Henson passed away.

Default RIP Steve Jobs
Damn it, how did I manage to dishonour him by having small letters on his name with the title thread??

Apple sucks ass, but he did great things back in the early days. I guess even he wouldn't be seen dead with the iPhone 4S

Steve Jobs is not just about Apple. Why is he almost or equivalent to Jim Henson for me?

What amazes me is how much he loved his work - kept going even though he knew it was soon to be over. Quite amazing really!

Not a big fan of Apple myself but he certainly made a huge difference to the technology we have in the world today. A visionary I believe they are calling him.
