Would you honour someone who - 'to solve world hunger' - nuked the best part of SA & placed strict laws on pregnation?
Because that is the only way it can be done - otherwise it is a constant battle.

Nothing against John Lennon, but it seems odd to put a British person on U.S. postage.
I don't mind putting John Lennon on a stamp. I'm less than thrilled with putting the pedophile Michael Jackson on a stamp.
True !! .......
..... problem is the world is full of stupid people and more than enough of those are actually doing it
Did you purposely decide to miss my point?
I just feel that people who are stamp-worthy should be those who did good deeds for human kind, like Bill Gates is trying to do now.
Wow, at the rate these comments are going, this thread will get moved to the political commentary section!
On another note, I do think it would be cool to get one of these, put it on an envelope addressed to me, and then have it sent from the Cupertino post office so show postmarked from Cupertino.
Just my $.02

I believe the poster quoted has a typo on the year. Apple was 90 days away from illiquidity in 1997. I saw no reason to nitpick what appears to be a typo.
Have a good day!

SeaFox,
Shhh, please don't tell about the first email. Some folk here are happy with the mental image of Steve with a cloven hoof, horns and a tail
Well... Michael Jackson produced one record that was absolute top, but never anything again that came close. And we can discuss how much of the quality was due to hiring every single top studio musician that money could buy. The guys who played on "Thriller" would have created a top class record without Michael Jackson as well.
Series will have
Johnny Carson, John Lennon, and Michael Jackson with Steve Jobs.
Good year for J's
Note the first 3 are entertainers, but Jobs was certainly a showman!
Can't underestimate how much he dazzled those who saw him.
no, only 50% more.

And seams
Remember those guys that said apple would never put seams in their iPhone
And they swore they would never buy it

He was shot in NY, so I think that it is fair.

It wasn't until the eighth president of the U.S. that the gent was actually born something other than a British subject.
If we push this line of thinking to the extreme, we're going to seriously need some new coinage.
Sure, whatever you say. No one has ever defended Steve to the death, or ever mentioned "I still miss you", years after his demise. It's just an illusion. My bad. I'm not worthy.
And if this were a trial ("please post some examples"): Actori incumbit probatio.
But, to humour you, one example:

I got news for you. My flippin' health care insurance provider does not have online payments yet. They are the only billpay I can't do online, it makes me crazy.

I understand that; but Jobs pushed for those deeds in a different way. Apple products have helped millions of people from around the world - without the iPhone/ AppStore; Developers, disabled, medical would have not have benefitted from such usable technology.
