RIP

Have been lucky enough to be working for Apple for over 5 years and way he has driven the company and vision of the man was amazing to be a part of, an amazing mentor, a major loss to Apple and the world , and when a president comments on his passing you know he was a great man and a game changer in all that we do today.

Do not think we will see another Steve Jobs in our lifetime Sad RRS S/C, Factory Fitted Full HST kit, 22" Overfinch SS, Carbon Vents & Grill .. - FOR SALE - PM me for details

....not shelling out £600 each time they release a "slightly" uplifted handset - probably.

Agreed a great guy. Funny how any other CEO etc (any) could snuff it tommorrow and I wouldn't give a s Censored t........I guess it was his calm manner and enthusiastic delivery at the keynotes that made him so likeable and hence the respect the world over. L322 Big Daddy SUPERCHARGED 5.0 Autobiography - Here & Now!

The last one is great. as a pc user and techie for many a year, my business is now in apple land and all is well, no more bloody pc nightmares.

if his visionm was to create a system that just worked and locked out all the tinkerers so it continued to work then well done that man Smile he, i assume and the people aroud him are also some of the best marketing and retail brains in the industry...... ever seen an empty apple shop?
