Tim Cook Asks Apple Employees to Remember Steve Jobs on Third Anniversary of His Death

Miss Steve and his ideas.....that's why the iPhones before the 6 won't bend so easy.

Yeah they would just completely lose service if you "held them wrong".

 

[rsocal]

It does actually. Technology is much more boring...

Very sad to me still!

 

[iBlazed]

I liked Steve Jobs. His company died with him. I will never buy another Mac. The Apple watch sucks and Tim Cook is a peace of crap.

Don't let the door hit you on the ass....

PIECE of crap, is probably what you meant to say.

Perhaps Walter Isaacson was confused about the Apple TV?

Photographer: Hey Steve, I want you to pose as if you're thinking intently... Y'know, dreaming up something big.

S.J ...My god, I've cracked it.

Photographer: You've done what now?

Looks like Steves wearing an iwatch in that photo...

Seems like Apple is treating him like a religious figure.

I'm always fascinated as to why people always feel the need to bring up religion....bizarre!

Typo

unmistakeable is wrong, it's unmistakable.

Thanks for correcting my typo.

Watch out, it's the 'Correction Police'

Steve's legacy died when Tim said "One more thing"...he didn't say it the way Steve did!

Nobody can, and that will always be missed!

Steve Jobs was The Man!

"Remember Steve Jobs... because if he'd been alive while you all shipped iOS8 he'd have punched your spleen through your spine."

 

[proline]

He wasn't wrong. Back before 2011, that was the correct size. 2014 is different.

Actually it isn't. 3.5" remains an excellent size for a portable device and that is why most phones sold are in this size range. Now because Apple neglected the minority of people who want bigger, they allowed one single Android OEM to make a decent profit in the large end. Now, they are taking that away and soon no Android vendors will be profitable. However, you can expect to see small, portable devices to be extremely important in the future. In fact, Apple has one coming in a few months...

I can't believe it's been 3 years already. It's actually one of those things where you remember where you were when you heard the news. For some reason, that's what happens with the Princess Di news too.

Let me help you out here:

Worship is an act of religious devotion usually directed towards a deity. The word is derived from the Old English weorþscipe, meaning worship, honour shown to an object, which has been etymologised as "worthiness or worth-ship"—to give, at its simplest, worth to something.

Does this make it less bizarre?!

This! I miss the GOOD MacBook Pros. The new ones are too thin, too fast and their screens are too high res. They must have been conceived the second Steve Jobs left the building.

"Here's to the crazy ones."
"Think Different"


I miss you Steve.

If they want to really remember him, stop this pathetic public mourning. Do a charity events day or raise money for Pancreatic Cancer Research/Transplant Research. Something that actually benefits people.

 

[robjulo]

Typical high level exec, do as I say, not as I do.

I'd prefer Tim Cook remember Steve Jobs instead of destroying everything he worked for by aligning himself with rappers with questionable (at best) pasts and the likes of Paris fashion types.

 

[The Doctor11]

I think it's nice Tim sends these emails to the employees to remind them

 

[Traverse]

It's ironic that Tim is "remebering Steve" as he is now ruining Steve's once great company. I really don't like Tim.

What's wrong with Tim?

 

[DotCom2]

Why is this whole thread about Tim bashing?
It should be about STEVE!
It's about remembering Steve!
Take the Tim bashing elsewhere please.

 

[TMRJIJ]

Attention all haters

To all haters bashing Tim Cook:
SHUT UP. WE DON'T CARE.

9/11 I remember i was on the bus heading home from work (quarter to eleven Western Australia time, in the evening).

But Steve job's passing, nope. Sad though when I heard about it

Princess Diana left more of an impact on the world but let's not get into a debate. Just saying.

 

[Komrad808]

As you newbie you wouldn't understand.

No!

Just because the company that Steve Jobs built wishes to honour his legacy does not suddenly mean the company sees him as some religious figure. The same way that most people honour a friend or a family members death, they don't suddenly see them as a religious figure.

Like or loathe him, the bottom line that no one can dispute is he brought a huge amount to the way society interacts and uses technology today.

Showing disrespect, irrelevant of one's opinions, is unnecessary and most people who display such behaviour are normally showing their own insecurities by putting others down.
