I felt so sad to hear the news that Steve Jobs had died on October 5th. It's hard to believe we've now lost one of the greatest minds in the Technology industry. If it wasn't for Steve Jobs, a lot of things that are easy to use today may have ended up more complex, or not have existed at all.
Steve Jobs was the founder of Apple Inc, the company behind many well-known products such as the Macintosh (Mac), the iMac, MacBook, iPod, iPhone, Apple TV and most recently the iPad! I, for one, love my iPod Classic and use it daily! I don't really know much about Steve Jobs, apart from what I've mentioned above, but I've read on the Internet that he invented a lot of things and pretty much gets looked on today as the modern day Thomas Edison....a great honour!
Fans of Apple may be concerned about the future of the company, but only time will tell. A lot of people looked on Steve Jobs as a genius, and from what I've read, he certainly was.
Steve, you will be sorely missed, not only by your family, but also by those who knew you as a friend or business partner, and the many fans you have accumulated over the years. You changed the world with what you did and the world is a better place for it.
May your legacy live on through Apple and may Apple keep doing great things even though you're no longer here.
RIP, Steve.
