They even re-did the entire mainpage of the website too. [url]http://www.apple.com/[/url]
I wasn't a fan of his mentality, but I won't deny that he revolutionized - and continued to revolutionize - personal computing since he founded Apple. He will be dearly missed.
Sad, that it happened day after the new iphone release.
Sadder that he was killed by Pancreatic Cancer (P.C.)

Cancer took the entire technology industry down with Steve. Fuck cancer. Steve will be deeply missed.

R.I.P bro. [video=youtube;PcgxSmMrKEA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcgxSmMrKEA[/video]
He was an inspiration to me to pursue my goals and not let people's ideas stop me from accomplishing what I think is important. Much of his philosophy and design, everything from pre-fab to the media, was brilliant. He didn't do what you wanted; he told you what you wanted. It is a shame for him to die, but I feel like he left behind the legacy he wanted.
[quote=Steve Jobs]“The most compelling reason for most people to buy a computer for the home will be to link it to a nationwide communications network. We’re just in the beginning stages of what will be a truly remarkable breakthrough for most people––as remarkable as the telephone.” [Playboy, Feb. 1, 1985] [/quote] He truly was a visionary. R.I.P. Steve
Although it's sad to see such an important person go, I can't say I have respect for Steve Jobs. He may have been a hell of a salesmen, but he did a lot of dirty work.
Very sad, but I can't say that I didn't see it coming, what with the resignation and the cancer.
Regardless of what I may think of some apple products, no one deserves to die in such a horrible way. Especially not such a revolutionary in the technology world.

I wonder if he donated any money to cancer research.

[QUOTE=rundevil;32649463]Wasn't that proven to be faked?[/QUOTE] Not that I know of, but still a upsetting image
[QUOTE=rundevil;32649463]Wasn't that proven to be faked?[/QUOTE] Who cares? It looks like Steve, and Steve would have looked like that leading up to his death. It's the thought/mental image that counts.
He was an innovator and a genius who changed the consumer world forever, and proved that a brand could become something a little bit more. Rest in Peace, Steve. You will be missed.
I think people know that I'm not very fond of either Apple nor it's products, but I can't deny that this man made an impact on how computers work, and how we use them. Cancer is really a terrible disease
He didn't innovate much, he created a much needed competition so other companys could advance, such as the iPad didn't invent tablets, but after it came out we got lots of other tablets, same with the iPhone and touchscreen phones, they existed before, but now they are the standard. R.I.P
I am not fond of many apple products but it sucks to see someone like him go. Rest in Peace, Steve, We'll miss you.
This man has changed the world we live in. Goodbye, Mr. Jobs.
I never liked Apple much, but I respect Steve. He truely did have an impact in the smartphone buisness and I don't think anyone can argue with that.
Sigh, no matter how expensive their products were they still didn't made enough to cure his cancer. :v: [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Trolling" - UberMensch))[/highlight]
