R.I.P. Steve Jobs

Post by MIKE JG »

Looks like Steve Jobs lost his long battle with cancer this afternoon. :(

IPod, IPad, IPhone, Macbooks, Macintosh, the mouse, and on and on and on.....

In the future, his name will be mentioned in the same company of Thomas Edison and Henry Ford.

Yeah, just seen the news over in OZ. Shame but as you said ....his name will live on.

I am a bit over Apple products, moved to Android phones a few months ago and loving it.

he will be missed greatly, we need A LOT more people like him.

p.s. the mouse was actually invented by Xerox(yeah, the printing company), but Apple was the one of the first companies to integrate the mouse into its computer systems.

A sad day indeed.

I agree entirely with you, Mike. His name will live on up there with the most famous engineers, inventors and visionaries.

RIP
