I don't think a million people cried, maybe his family - but they'd probably done most of the crying during the earlier years of his prolonged death.
I'd thought all along he was using the best technology to keep himself alive long enough to finish his work, and he did some fantastic work toward the end.
There is something deeply sad yet profoundly noble about this, and I think it moved people around the world who'd been paying attention to the man on stage who was dying, then finally went home to die.
A real tribute to his work was seen walking around the Fenway in Boston this fall as the students returned, seeing little other than Apples, IPads and IPhones. I wondered if he knew this.
