RIP. As an oncology nurse, I will continue to fight against cancer.

Poppin Fresh · 10-06-2011, 03:46 AM

Steve Jobs gave my life a soundtrack I could listen to. RIP. Thank you for being who you are; a genius.

man this is truly a sad loss. i wish his family and apple the best.

AustinL · 10-06-2011, 04:49 AM

I definitely don't want anyone to die but as much I wish BMW wouldn't be so much attached to just Apple. There are lots of other good brands as well and Apple's are so over-priced...

I bought 3 more later on after they were discontinued for $300 that I use for parts, but in almost 30 years I've only had to change out one of the RAM memory boards.

I still have a functioning Apple Macintosh SE circa 1987, with a whopping 2MB of RAM and an external HD of 20MB, all for $3500 (including $700 for the HD) back in the day.

It was either buying this computer or a Kawasaki Ninja motorcycle.

Go figure.

RIP Steve Jobs.

So sad to hear of his passing..... I am a big fan of the Apple products which Steve's passion and dedication created.

Thanks Steve for your contribution to society and for giving computer users the world over an alternative to the PC.

RIP Steve.

If only someone could do for cancer treatment what he did for technology.

So then is the 4S to Steve Jobs what the F40 is to Enzo Ferrari?

Thank you for everything, Steve. We will miss you.

RIP Steve. The founder of my career and following. I, along with billions loving his innovations, and one honored to have met him and proudly work for the company he envisioned, will be truly missing the biggest part of my life. I am deeply affected by his passing, though truly changed by the vision and affect that Apple and it's culture has had on me.

Rest In Peace - Marcin

I would think the iPad would fit a little better for his last major product.
