When he came back earlier this year, I suspect he knew he was living on borrowed time.

Many many people have good jobs and a better quality of life because of this guy.

R.I.P.

Wow.

He hung on as long as he could. All that money and it couldnt save him. Sucks. That wont always be the case though.


Anyways.

He steps down.
Apple fails to launch iPhone 5.
He passes.


RIP - A True Giant!

He stepped down a little over a month ago, no iPhone 5 was his decision. Anything coming out of Apple the next year, at the least, will have his finger prints all over it.

Sad day.

Some go sooner than others. Some go faster than others, but we all must go at some point.

It's something I've already come to terms with.

I understand and respect that he was an incredible genius.

What I think of Steve Jobs the human being, is now irrelevant. He no longer exists. Today, we look for the next leader in the consumer technology field.

Aye... we are all born with a terminal disease. Truth.

Uh, not exactly. Suffering through years of pancreatic cancer isn't quite the same as going quietly in your sleep at 95 years old. I mean say what you will, but considering my best friends mother is on her death bed, losing the battle to cancer as I type this, the idea that "Oh well, we all gonna die one day anyway." doesn't quite sit right with me at this moment.

This is definitely sad news. A real pioneer in the computing industry has passed on. RIP, Mr. Jobs.

I found out he died via a news update on my iPhone. As sad as the news was, I couldnt help but smile a little and hope that wherever he is that he knows what an impact he had on the world.

3 Apples that changed the world: the one that Eve ate, the one that fell on Newton's head & the one that Steve Jobs built.

Great piece on NBC Nightly News tonight on him. Very sad news, indeed.
