I've never been a fan of Apple, but Jobs had a lot of noteworthy accomplishments in his lifetime. He's certainly worthy of respect, and will be long remembered.

RIP Steve. You gave us some great things to play with. :cry:

Now I've never been a fan of Apple or turtlenecks, but I will say this. This news means absolutely nothing to me. The only impact it will have is that now I'll end up having to say, "yes, I did hear that Steve Jobs died, so what?"

Now there will be rumors that he died a month ago... http://gizmodo.com/5838873/is-steve-jobs-dead

RIP to a true pioneer. :) btw, mjmacky, sometimes things are better left within your own head than shared with the world. mmmmkkkkaay??! :shutup:

Oh shit, is this the world? I had mistaken it for my secret lockbox

Who said that? And what are you all doing in my imaginary world? :dry:

It used to be the voices in my head that said kill Steve Jobs, now that he's gone, they're just rambling

His death came a day after Apple unveiled the new iPhone 4S at its headquarters in California.

The disappointment of the new iFail S is what finished him off! The good news is that there's an app for finding a funeral service, so that's alright then.

Yeah apparently the guy was a d-bag much of his life. He was never the primary developer of the material he was advertising, he was a marketing genius. He took a lot of credit for what others did. He was fired from apple, people, don't forget. He was brought back since his name was always associated with apple products and made a good face for the company. Not to say I knew him personally, but this is what history has written.

I had to google some of this as you may agree these are quite strong words and most of what I can find agrees with you. It seems that a British man named Kane Kramer was the original inventor of the iPod and this was only admitted after/during a court case in 2008. Steve's only involvement was that he oversaw the project and was not actually directly involved with engineering. (source: http://ipod.about.com/od/understandi...ented-ipod.htm)
