Respect for achievement is hardly a relic, especially when Her Majesty makes choices as good as this one. I can think of no one better qualified than Sir Jony to receive his country's highest award.
Well Ive is British, and a Knighthood is one of the biggest honours our country can bestow upon someone, recognising excellence in their work, and their impact in the world. Its a pretty big deal to British people who receive an award like this. Plus you can replace Mr with Sir...
The relevance to international readers on this site is purely news relating to a senior and well known Apple employee.
I am ashamed to be a human sometimes
1) He definitely deserved it. He had an enormous impact on design.
2) Also to all those saying they're "ashamed to be human because someone got an award" grow up and get over yourselves. Be glad there is happy news for once. Don't worry we didn't forget the tons of tragedies happening all over the world, but its nice to hear something positive for a change since positive things happen too and are just as news worthy.
I thought you couldn't use the first name? I thought it had to be Sir Ive or Sir Jonathan Ive?
(I could be waaay wrong as I am not from that part of the world).
A little out of place, i think, since Apple is an American company. I cold have unerstood nighthood if Ive brought his talents to a British Co.
