Yep, it's true. He died after a long battle with a rare form of pancreatic cancer.

I don't use a single Apple product, but I can't deny his and his company's influence over everything.

RIP, yo.

Whether you like Apple or not, you cannot deny his and Apple's impact in the computer and technological industry. Shocked me to hear about his death today. Wasn't expecting it just yet. I wonder how Apple will change.

The reaction to Jobs reminds me of the reaction to Jackson.

Suddenly everyone likes him.

Unfortunately, I'm sure that even without him, Apple will still produce over-priced products with loads of mandatory unneeded software. You know, the way Steve would have wanted it...

I also don't use any Apple products, but his influence is tremendous. But, Apple will keep going, considering he resigned from his position back in August. It's interesting, Apple's stock actually spiked this morning. I would have expected it to fall.

I heard that he wanted an iFuneral but the graveyard didn't support iTunes.

At least it's not at the expense of an entire country razed to the ground by earthquakes, tsunamis, and nuclear meltdowns...

Well at least it gives me the rare opportunity to side with both Stythe and Lantis at the same time. We should turn that into some kind of Magonian the Gathering card.

did you hear about any of his other products? iAms is quite popular among the canine community.
