| I can hardly believe it. I live in Silicon Valley and he has been an iconic visionary here since the 70's. He was only 56. Very sad. |

| What does it say about how dedicated the guy is that seeing the 4S introduced was the last thing on his bucketlist.

| I switched on my Mac today and the home page is the Apple obituary photo of Steve Jobs. I didn't know that much about him apart from he was co-founder and CEO of Apple, to me he was the cool guy in the black t shirt and blue jeans giving the keynote speech at the launch of the iPod, iPhone, and the latest Mac computers. I also knew he was ill and that he handed over the overall control of Apple just recently. The media for once was right Steve Jobs really was a visionary, and and his legacy is millions around the world today will have learned of his death on one of his products.

| Indeed a sad for the computer world. A great innovator and leader lost to that cursed disease no one can hide from.
I have been a fan, follower, user of Apples for years and Steve Jobs loss will be profound in the industry.
RIP to a very great man. |
