The introduction og the iPhone 4.1 must have done him in.

Seriously this guy is a legend.

Just saw it on the tube.
Condolences to family, friends, fans.

They said since he re-joined Apple, company stocks rose 7000%. That's Not a typo.

hey, on a side note for anyone interested, I would suggest a really good movie about the Steve Jobs, the name is "The Pirates of Silicon Valley", you can find info here: Pirates of Silicon Valley - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Its really interesting to see the relationship between he and Bill Gates in the early years.

Excellent call.

Excellent call.

Seriously, when I first read the post by SC-Texas I thought he was joking until I Googled it and found out it was for real. Whats weird is that I was just reading in the paper today at lunch about how poorly the IPhone 4.1 had been received. Its really a shame considering all the leaps in technology that was accomplished by Apple under his leadership, and one wonders what might have been developed in the future had this not happened.

You fixed it. That's what mattered. Now it's over.

He will be missed. I know there are Apple haters, and Apple lovers... But not matter, Droid et al wouldn't be there if it wasn't for Apple and Jobs.

RIP Steve.

Love Apple or hate it, we all must respect Mr. Jobs for the innovations he brought. RIP Steve.

I posted from an iPad. Jobs and wozniak made the personal computer into a household device.

"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. Most important have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary. Stay hungry. Stay foolish. I have always wished that for myself. And now, I wish that for you." - Steven P. Jobs

I remember playing games on my friends apple II in the early 80s.

If you have 15 minutes to spare, I'd watch this video. Never seen it before until tonight, and it speaks volumes of who this guy really was! Great motivational speech IMO.
