Steve Jobs we will miss you

Amen.

I believe Jobs will be remembered in the same breath as Henry Ford, Thomas Edison and Walt Disney, as a person who had a huge impact on our collective lives and culture. He played a key role in defining the computer age and in re-shaping our entertainment industry. His influence will still be felt long after his death.

No argument concerning his visionary accomplishments, but from what I have read over he years, on a personal level, he was a prick. High achievers often are.
There are some people who leave a great emotional and personal void when they pass on. For me, he is not one of those people.

Come on, about dead "either good or nothing".
Upgraded heaven? Well put. When it is time for me to go there I will choose if I can a regular one, no upgrades.

Looking forward to the Isaacson biography.

RIP

Yeah, I do feel sad esp. since he was such a visionary in the technology field (in which it is difficult to be these days & to have such an impact simultaneously). This field is very much lacking men (those sit in powerful positions that can influence) who have a true vision that can change people's lives with technology(they are all concerned with stuffing their pockets instead). I also feel sad that a young man's life was cut short. It seems to me that the best do not stay on Earth for too long; they seem to be needed elsewhere.....
I'm a very modest Apple consumer but I had a deep respect for him just 'cuz of how & what he did that nobody else could.
