Way too Young at only 56! ...

Thanks for sharing that, Phil...

I agree that Steve Jobs was an entrepreneurial visionary... He is one of those entrepreneurs who truly changed the world we lived in, in multiple ways... Through the computers we use for work (and play), how we listen to music, how we watch animated movies (through Pixar), and even the little computers (smartphones) that we carry around in our pockets...

Although he was reportedly difficult to work with, I think he's an inspiration... May he rest in peace.

I suspect it is easy for true genius to become frustrated with the efforts of mere mortals, which could explain why someone like Jobs would be difficult to work with ...

Dien, you put it very well, how much his vision has changed our every day lives.

What will become of Apple now? I think the arrow will trend steadily downward.

My initial reaction was to go out and buy an iSomething in Steve's honor. Alas, I can't afford one!
