I dislike most of apple products, but it's never good to lose someone like him. R.i.p

on a lighter note, this gave me a guilty chuckle, which I am ashamed of. (read the first 4 comments)

Never had anything against Jobs, his 'vision', or Apple products in general. Have a BIG problem with apple's marketing department though (which I think rings true for most people who don't buy apple products).

I've never went out of my way to buy any apple products and I don't know why because the guy made some really cool things that are much better than the none innovative alternatives out there.

He came out with new ways of interacting and interfacing with technology and then there was the shameless competition who had no choice but to copy his product's both in looks and features.

I can just only imagine what will become of apple. I hate to think that it will turn into something that doesn't stand out from the rest anymore....He was revolutionary with his ideas and he will be missed.

Not really a huge fan of Apple products/software and I've always found most men wearing turtlenecks to be a tad bit creepy, but yes, the man did have an immense amount of capabilities.

Just to be respectful, I won't yell out "Fucking Steve Jobs!" for the next 3 days whenever my iPod/iTunes starts acting up on me.

Although I'm aware you're trolling, I'll reply.
You don't necessarily need to appreciate the Apple brand so much as you should appreciate what this man and his products have done for technology today.

He revolutionized the way we use our phones and opened up the door for other companies to start doing the same stuff.

The man was a visionary. RIP, sir.

No, he stepped down from head of Apple because of his battle with pancreatic cancer.

Heartless bitch for not caring about someone he's never met and never knew other than his job placement?

Right..

Is not about Apple, is about a man with such leadership and vision who lost his life. This is a big loss :/

RIP, Steve Jobs.

Man, he was 56... still a long way ahead. Natural death?

Even though I respect the man for what he's done, I can't say his death matters more for me than any other random person dying I've never met and therefore I don't care on a personal level.

RIP nonetheless Mr. Jobs.

Okay so what you guys are saying is fuck history them bastards, never knew them never will know them right? ight cool dudes :D hahaha

anyways who cares if we didn't know him personally he brought a great deal to our technology

He made other companies try harder to beat the iphone and ipod which created some good rivalry, i'd like to see how the technology would be at right now without the creation of apple...
