Steve Jobs is Dead

Post by ibly31 »

It's such a shame to see such an incredible person leave us. He brought Apple back from the brink of bankruptcy and brought Pixar to what it is today. Its kind of chilling when you think that he probably knew he had a time limit left when he resigned from Apple.

What are all of your thoughts?

I think it's sad that he died. Rather, it was sad that he got pancreas cancer, that's by far the worst and most painful cancer apparently. As much as i bitch about Apple, i still respect his work. May he Rest In Peace.

RIP Steve. This planet thanks you for your several contributions in the world of electronics. ;)

I think it'd be pretty badass if he had a caskett in the shape of an iPod or something lol
