RIP Steve Jobs
Love Apple or not, Steve had a major influence on the world we live in. Our condolences to his family.


* Do not turn this into a Apple vs PC vs ... flame-fest, please and thank you.

Just for how long did he survive his fight against cancer?

I'm not old enough to know or understand all that Steve Jobs has done, but rip

I remember learning to program on an Apple II.

Jobs, you were a crazy bastard, but you were also brilliant. You forever changed how people thought of computers. You stole ideas, and yet made them become visions.

Modern computers, and modern computer users, owe you so much more than we'll ever know.

You made today possible, and for that we'll miss you.

Rest in peace, Steve Jobs. In nomine patre, et fili, et spiritu sancti, amen.

I was never much of an Apple person, but I'd have to be a complete idiot to not admit that Steve Jobs is one of the people that shaped the wonderful world of technology we live in today. He may be gone, but his legacy remains.

It's always sad when someone goes away, especially someone that in some way has affected people.

I never really cared much for him or Apple, but he is responsible for Pixar, and you can't be a human and NOT love Pixar. :'(

Actually, it's a liturgical latin (ie Catholic ) reference - "In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost".

Thank you for the correction. I was tired and in a lot of pain when I wrote that. :>
