Sad to hear this news. Such a major player in the way we see the world. He had a loyal staff and an obsession to give us a perfect product. Perfect or not they have many features and functions that are great. Think Pixar, iPods, iPhones and even breaking through mice and GUIs etc etc

Ironically, i, amongst many others learned of his passing on one of his devices. I never warmed to Steve Jobs as a human, but as an originator and entrepreneur he is a legend, and will be remembered accordingly. I have been a mac and general Apple products user for many years now, and they have made my life more interesting and fun, and gave me a way out of microsoft/pc gear! RIP Steve.
