RIP Steve Jobs

[megocrazy]

When he left apple with no real reason, I thought things might be getting bad health wise.

Sleep well, Steve.

Saw this coming in a bad way,
its all over CNN now

[VintageMike]

Just found out about this. I guess the fact that he stepped down should have been an indicator that things were much worse than anyone imagined. R.I.P.

One of my favorite Steve Jobs quotes:

"Do you want to spend the rest of your life selling sugared water or do you want a chance to change the world?" -- The line he used to lure John Sculley away from Pepsi to be Apple's CEO, according to Odyssey: Pepsi to Apple, by John Sculley and John Byrne

I'm really bummed about this.

[Johnny]

That's a real shame.
Incredible visionary.
A great loss for sure.

RIP Steve.

[Nostalgiabuff]

wow, i mean we knew he was ill and his stepping down frmo CEO was a good indicator how sick he was, but this still comes as a shock. RIP, he was truly an innovator

[cjefferys]

Sorry to say that I could see it coming, but it was still a bit of a shock to read the headlines. He was an incredible innovator. RIP Steve.

that sucks, rip Steve

[Figuremod73]

knew he wasnt in the best of health but very suprised.
he has certainly left his mark on our culture

[Brazoo]

He's that incredible mix of genuine innovator and genuine icon to me - I have to admit, it's a weird feeling.

I honestly think that he maybe one of the few people in our lifetime that history really singles out and remembers - you know, 'that guy from the computer age' - the way that Henry Ford is remembered now by high school students.

[SeattleEd]

WOW!! We are shocked here at work.

[sauce]

I was locked in research on All Things iPhone when I saw this thread. . . .

RIP Steve Jobs
