+ Show Spoiler [A small joke from Reddit] + I don't blame the Democrats or the Republicans. I don't blame Wall Street nor the financial system. I blame cancer for our loss of Jobs. | ||

“Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes… the ones who see things differently — they’re not fond of rules… You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things… they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.” -Steve Jobs Great man with an even greater legacy. It is very inspiring to see what he has done in his life and i cant help but feel motivated to try and emulate it if not surpass it. If everyone had this drive to change the world, it would be a much better place. RIP Steve. WP | ||

He may have died early, but he is now immortalised in a way by his followers and his legacy. A great loss. this sums it up pretty much for me, rip | ||

That is terribly sad, specially since the devices you are typing (even more if you are on a mobile platphorm) would be a lot more behind if it not for Steave Jobs and Apple. His ability to sell ideas and make people excited about anything no matter how minute or crazy it is (best demonstrated on his amazing keynote presentations) is why the tech world is not 10 years behind now.

Through the Macintosh I discovered my passion for graphic design, my love for all the little details and the satisfaction of creating something beautiful. Without the Mac, I wouldn't have opted to work in the creative industry, I wouldn't have studied design, I wouldn't have the job I have now and never met the girl I'm in love with. Thank you. | ||

"My first computer was on an Apple IIc. I started my Warcraft 2, Starcraft and Quake gaming on my iMac, part of the first ever mac-only clan." Which was followed by "My competitive gaming experience started on GameRanger, a mac-only client, and with mac-only players. A part of my childhood left today. RIP" Then it hit me... I've spent most of my adult life being a PC elitist, trash talking every apple computer, the iphone, ipad, with the only piece of apple technology I own being an ipod, and I hated needing itunes on my computer to sync my stuff to it, as well as it not having a standard USB cable because im always losing my sync cable. But it hasn't always been that way. Like slasher, I too started on a Macintosh computer. When I was still in grade school I passed the nights away, staying up until 3AM, playing Starcraft, Warcraft, and Command and Conquer, and then catching a few hours of sleep before leaving for school. Somewhere in life I forgot this. I forgot I played amazing games on a Mac, and became a complete hater of almost everything apple. I laughed at the idea of the ipad. I searched for ways to show the inferiority of the iphone. Because of Jobs genius, vision and his companies I got into RTS games, and fell in love with every movie Pixar has released. To that all I can say is thanks. Thanks for the experience, thank you for the pleasure, and thank you for helping shape me into the gamer I am today, even though it took a long haired, short-shorts wearing dude to make me realize it. RIP | ||
