Losing someone you care about seems to adjust people's priorities & points of view. I knew Steve took medical leave, but I'm sure no one expected the timing of this. I'll refrain from going on a personal discussion about my father.
We've lost a true genius today.
Very very sad, not like boo-hoo sad, but a weird sad like we have truly lost something profound.
I mean this man was way too young, he had at least 20-30 good years of changing the world left in him.
RIP

This is a sad day. I feel like I have lost a family member. Steve will be dearly missed!

You Will Be Missed, Steve.
I'm not an Apple user (though I do own a Mac Mini which I occasionally use), but I must say that Steve Jobs had an enormous mostly positive influence on the tech industry. I think his legacy will be the idea that technology should be both beautiful and easy to use. Steve Jobs created technology for regular (non-techy) people. His success forced the rest of the industry to adopt his philosophy. Look at the changes Microsoft is making to its entire product line. Thank you, Steve Jobs. You will be missed.

I don't know why, but this is bothering me a lot more than I thought it would.
Here's to one of the great innovators of our time.

We will always remember you, Steve. Thank you for your devotion, drive and brilliance in a world of pessimism and apathy. RIP good sir. May angels sing thee to thy rest.
Had some great memories of Steve as an Apple employee including having lunch with him at Caffe Mac's. Didn't always agree with him but nobody can doubt he is brilliant. People say he changed technology. They are wrong. Steve changed everything about Business, period.
Really brought a tear to my eye, he was such an incredible visionary.
