Steve Jobs Has Died

[ThisIsSnake]

I'm a PC and I'm still alive.

Couldn't resist.

I may not love apple but I apperciate what he has done for computer technology. Seemed like a good person too.

You know what's sad? He's going to be remembered for the iPhone/iPod.

Really? Despite his revolutionary work on digital media market?


God bless and rest in peace. He was a brilliant man and my thoughts with his family.

Brilliant and it brings a tear to my eyes. He was a true visionary and a model to follow. What more to say than that a great man has passed and anyone who pretends to be uncaring just deserves that treatment when they themselves are pushing up the daisies.

Here's to remembering Steve Jobs. He was a great visionary. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Steve, as much as I don't care about Macs and iAnything, thank you for co-founding Pixar.

Rest in Peace.

I think it's interesting to note that most comments in this thread begin with "I don't like Apple" or something similar. I can't tell you how impressed I was to read, up until this post, people remain mostly respectful. Steve Jobs isn't just defined by what you choose or choose not to buy, he was also family and friend to many, as well as a human being. I don't mean to sound trite or sappy by saying such, just, please, a man died.

That's good.

It's a shame that he's gone. He boosted graphic design and animation. Rest in peace Steve.

He did make the first commercial GUI-interface, that was innovative.

He didn't make anything, he bought the tech.

Seriously? Well that's...pretty damn lame. So what did he do?

And I don't mean to intrude on your grief, but people die everyday. Don't know how may died even as I type this.

OT: He died doing what he loved--almost--till the very end. Ain't exactly a bad way to go, is it?

It doesn't matter if it's Steve or a young adult just stepping out into the world. As long as the person has done good, which by my moral code, he basically has, I'll wish him and his family peace. No offense to ike42, who is considers Steve's patent polices death worthy. (Or close enough, really)

Sad that he passed away at such a young age.

Rest in peace, Steve.

It's sad for the people who knew him. Which means not you.

If Apple didn't existed Bill Gates, without string competence, would be our one and only emperor. Windows wouldn't be half of good looking (it isn't as good looking as Mac OS now). And mobile devices wouldn't be so popular.

I won't report you because i'd rather you to think about it and realize that you should have been more respectful even if you don't like/care about his products than for you to be warned.

I didn't personally know him, nor am I draped in black or crying today. I simply point out that, while yes, people die everyday, let's not be callous about it for the sake of being callous.

Thank you Steve for your contribution to the world, I grew up with an Apple computer. Rest in peace.

What difference does it make? The guy's legacy is nothing more than creating user friendly systems, however people don't seem to care that he has also made all of these systems extremely closed and controlled to the point Apple can simply decide they don't like a certain program and remove it from not only their network and servers, but literally clean it from your harddrive.

To me, that really isn't someone I would mourn about. Call me callous, call me a dick, I won't miss his "innovation" in this world.

Not liking him, nor thinking his innovations were unimportant isn't callous. Arbitrarily writing "iDontgiveafuck" like a smart ass in response to the announcement of someone's death is. And that's what started this discussion.
