*Poke poke* Lemme tell you about a little company Steve Jobs started called 'Apple'. Started back in...oh, I think it was 1976. Made a little thing called the Macintosh.

Helped pretty much set the benchmark for personal computing, alongside Microsoft.

I can't get rid of my darn signature! Oh, wait....

Anyone losing a life is a sad affair. And nobody cares about the 16 thousand children that die of malnutrition daily in Africa. So why should i care about the death of someone famous is beyond me.

Do i feel for his deat? Of course i do.. for his families and friends. Just as i feel about those children's family and friends. And that is as far as i go. My life moves on.

No "Special Steve Jobs Documentary" or "Steve Jobs Memorial Day" or "getting donations for Steve Jobs family" or even doing something out of my own daily routine in dedication of Steve Jobs. He is no more or less important than anyone else so my caring is exactly the same. And it irks me when media try to force me the idea that i should feel any different.

The hipocrisy and sheer ignorance makes me sick to my stomach.

wow.. let try fact for a change.

Apple was established on April 1, 1976 by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, and Ronald Wayne to sell the Apple I personal computer kit. that was hand built by Steve Wozniak.

Without Steve Wozniak there would be no apple.

You could also argue if it wasn't for Jonathan Ive then you would not have iMac, iPod and iPhone and the modern day Apple we all love to hate now, as he is the man designed and created all 3.

So yes whilst Steve Jobs had a major part to play, he was not the be all and end all.

Shame really, but not unexpected. Poor guys been battling cancer for years.

However I still have no respect for Apple. American technology thats developed in Korea, made in Thailand, and support is in India. Yet people wonder why the economy has gone to hell.

How is it American when if its developed in Korea? Other then that, I do'nt really care about Steve Jobs as a personality, I won't miss him. As a human being though its never good if a man of women dies sooner rather than later, he had a good fight though and went out swining, I don't thing you can ask for more.
