Never really liked the guy, but death so early on is always sad.

I bet if he was still alive and someone emailed him about his death (Yah I know) he would have replied something along the lines of ;

I died, move on.

Steve.


Rest Peacefully.

They probably have no idea who Steve Jobs was. A lot of people probably don't.

In a statement issued Thursday, Foxconn said Jobs was "an industry visionary, a true partner to our company, and a great friend."

I remember getting my first ipod in 2001. I was just amazed by the quality of the product and packaging and hadn't seen anything like it before. Compared to the other mp3 solutions around at the time it just seemed such a complete product.
