A tragic loss. He could have done so much more...

Although I have never owned a MAC or I Phone the Steve was a genius when it comes to technology.
Steve Jobs thinking was so far advanced that some would think he is in the same category as Thomas Edison and Walt Disney. Always thinking, planning with visions of the future.
He died from a long battle with Pancreatic Cancer making him a gallant warrior as it is a painful way to go.
May he Rest in Peace!

I'm sad about the news of his death. Yes, he was fairly young and still had a world of things to do. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and his many, many extended friends.

Sad , really sad , He will be truly missed .. R.I.P...

I knew his health was not good and he had serious issues but his death seems very sudden and unexpected. I'm totally surprised and shocked!

In any case the man was a marketing genius and made computers cool, and not only the realm of us geeks.

God rest your soul.

He said that the only reason that he would step down a CEO from Apple is on if he had 3 months to live. He kept he promise. You will be missed and no one will push hardware makers like you did.

He was a man 50 years ahead of his time. The things that he was pushing for in the early 90's are only coming of age now.

I guess it was best that he wasn't at the helm when he died, as I think that would have made an even stronger (and not necessarily 'good') impact on the technology world.

At the time of hearing it I tweeted ":O just turned my PC monitor on with live.twit.tv on it. I see "Apple Confirms Steve Jobs' Death, 1955-2011" RIP :'(". I'm in England (and English), so it's currently 4:30AM. I've been up all night following Twitter and the TWiT network's coverage of it.

RIP Steve Jobs.

This is sudden and sad.. RIP Steve Jobs.

 

[Dwarf]

Sad, sudden, but not at all unexpected. He'd had health troubles (pancreatic cancer) for a number of years now, although he did have a couple of years or so remission from the illness. His most recent appearances just before he died showed him to be very gaunt, thin, and weak - in short, he looked an old man, much older than his years. His mind, however, remained sharp to the end.

RIP Steve Jobs... You were truly an innovator and a keen player in the computing industry.

Steve Jobs was a true visionary in the computing world!

He was one of the person who brought personal computing to the reach of common man in 80's.

He also brought great consumer products like i(nnovative)Pod, i(conic)Phone, i(mpressive)Pad, from a largely high tech computer company. He never ceases to amaze the world.

After his return to Apple in 1996 as interim CEO, He quoted himself as "iCEO"! at the 2000 Macworld Expo. Truely said!

We lost him at an early age... Had he survived the disease, we would have seen much more innovative products from Apple.

We all miss him dearly and may God rest his soul in peace!
