I can't say I like the apple computer,

But I respected the man.

Proposal is for his own solar system up somewhere in the middle of high sec - that is a 0.0 security.

Only if you name one HugoChavez first.

I guess once you have a signature, you cannot have a blank one.

While we're on the topic of ludicrous ideas....

I say that Google, Microsoft, and Android should make a joint project comemorating the death of their biggest rival. The said product should be called the iWin.

system called "I-POD" would make more sense

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

apple would just sue ccp. so no deal.

i don't get it why people all over the world are mourning now and lay down flowers before apple shops... just shows what a freaking cult apple is and what kind of people buys any apple computers... ipods and iphones were legendary. rest is just rip off...

The moment CCP introduces anything named "Steve Jobs" into EvE is the moment Apple sues...

His greatest legacy is the introduction of fonts way back when he was a newb together with Woz.

Since those early days he turned to evil:
- Convinced consumers to accept mediocre products at exorbitant prices because of :bling: factor.
- Convinced consumers that closed proprietary systems was a good thing and in their best interest.
- Once the snowball was rolling he could gouge any/all "partners" simply for the privilege of being on the inside.

He understood human nature and exploited it for personal/corporate gain, a shrewd business man, nothing more.

I'm sure there will be legal problems if that's done. You'd have to change the name around a little so it sounds like Steve Jobs but it's not to avoid legal trouble.

I'd go with Jeve Stobs.

Blizzard does this with famous peoples names as NPCs in their game. WoW has a character named Harris Pilton. I think overall it's a stupid idea, but there you go.
