Today marked the end of an era. Apple founder Steve Jobs succumbed to pancreatic cancer early this evening. I’m not going to go on about what a great innovator and technical pioneer he was, there’s plenty of that to be had elsewhere. I will share this thought, the products he pioneered have brought tremendous joy to me both in terms of entertainment and allowing me to express my creativity. In fact, I’m writing this on one of my many Macs.
When attending my friend’s funerals, I always say “Go easy, Bro”, but that somehow doesn’t fit here, having only briefly met Steve once, just long enough to exchange a brief pleasantry. So instead, I simply wish to pay my respects and admiration and hope that the world will get to see a brilliant mind like that again in my lifetime.
Jim says “Thanks.”
