People die every day. It is a fact of life. Its disappointing, but it shouldn't much affect you knowing the name of the person who has died, less they are close to you.

It's sad to know that such an iconic figure in the progression of technology has passed away...

Saxton Hale must have finished him after their lengthy 1 on 1 duel to see who's weapons were better: Mann Co.'s, or Apple's. (You probably won't get it unless you've read the TF2 Mac Update comics)

R.I.P. Steve.

By iconic you mean selling things for 2-3x as much as they're worth?

Rofl I don't think your appreciative. Either way you like it, Steve WAS known for revolutionising how we think of technology, how we use technology and pushed the worlds technology onto new stages. Okay the prices are atad overpriced but its a small price to pay for moving the worlds technology further and further on to better things, now he is dead I think the stock markets prove what I just said.

Many people hope that Tim (who ever he is) can pull Apple through and maintain the iconic features of apple. But then others feel and I agree that this maybe the time that Google needs to pull on top lol (especially seeing the rise in popularity in Google Chromium and Android.)

Agree with this wholeheartedly. All Apple does is take existing technology, make it looks pretty and then stick and even prettier price tag on it.

Steve Job's, probably one of the most creative, innovative, inspiring people. You know, it's not any more sad then the people that die every day, but it's still somewhat sad. It's not everyday that someone this iconic dies. It's a good thing that he stepped down when he did.

R.I.P.

Steve Job's, your to legit. Just kidding, but hope to chill in heaven.

Good, he stole software from other companies and required money from Microsoft to keep active. His 'innovations' were already around, he just marketed them properly.

That's true but Steve did design, or at least market a large amount of apple's products. I've seen the movie, Steve made the company what it currently is so the death of their ex-CEO must have taken its toll one the company as a whole.

If it weren't for Apple and steve's discussion to re-invent the tablet PC, or re-invent what we expect from laptops or even phones I don't expect the other companies that then tried challenging this to come up with sometimes better products.

Industry always needs this kick in the back side to move on, and Steve was this innovation kick ;p Who will be next ?

Don't count on Bill Gates or any existing developer/company. Probably someone who wasn't born yet.

And the thing that Steve died is sad, but eh, I never was really connected with Apple, so.

You don;t have to be connected to Steve nor apple to be apart of the revolution. Apply and Steve really pushed the technology onto new beginning and better things. I don;t think we'd be having phones now that played high def games if it weren't for apple pushing out the iPhone/iTouch making all the other companies push out similar things and making Google push out Andriod.
