Thanks to him I was able to play Plant's vs Zombie's on my phone while on lunch today... seriously to all those people saying he never made technological advances, that may be true... but he put that technology into an easy to use package that was available to everyone, and usable by everyone. That's way more important than each piece of technology on it's own. Ford did the same with the Model T. How many people did you see walking around with an MP3 player before the iPod came out? How many mass marketable TRUE smartphones were out before the iPhone? The answer for both of those is basically none.

As far as computers go, if you sat someone that's never used a computer before infront of a PC and then a Mac, which one is that person going to find easier to use? Honestly I'd say the Mac, and I'm a diehard PC user. That is part of the price hike... yeah you're paying more for a technologically inferior product... but the user experience, and the quality of that experience, is going to be unmatched, and many people are more than willing to pay the price for it.

With that said, RIP Steve... you changed the world of personal computers in ways that will probably never be seen again.

For those arguing about Jobs' memory, I think you're caught up looking at it through the lens of an engineer, when Jobs' greatest strength was that of a business man. They require completely different skillsets and he was unquestionably one of the greatest business men in modern history. The normal processes of product development through the HoQ, AHP, etc. don't apply to people like Jobs. That's what's special.

I don't know that he was a great person, as he was a notoriously unphilanthropic and difficult to work for, but he was still a legend in his craft and died too young.

He's joking about someones who has just died. Maybe he should think about Job's widow and 4 children before he starts making "clever" jokes.

Lots of people use jokes to overcome death. It's not insulting his character in any way. I find his comment no less valuable than a bunch of empty "RIP" posts.

edit: vvv It's "You're". Short for "you are". "Your" is a possessive. Don't fuck it up because it makes you look stupid, especially when you're calling someone an idiot.

Please stop derailing this thread, you are showing more disrespect than that 'clever joke' already.

I found his joke quite witty. Some times people take things too seriously, and this happens. You're making the thread worse than the cliché "RIP" posts.

Steve was a great man, and he pioneered smart phones and the MP3 and without him, we wouldn't have all those scene kids on the street corners listening to their indie tracks, or making train journies shorter.

Or the the fact that Steve Jobs died from PC (pancreatic cancer). Read that carefully if you get it or not, lol, but yeah, that was probably stated already in this thread.

Honestly, what was said above is right. Everyone mourns a death differently. Not everyone is gloomy and depressed when someone passes away. Some people like to laugh it off and try to lighten the mood.

My god, man! Now I have to get a new keyboard!

Never good when someone dies, but it sits ill with me that one man gets so much attention over the other nameless thousands. Not like he deserved to live more than anyone else. Whatever the case, it's still sad.

A great business man, but please I heard someone saying that he was an amazing artist on the television.
Cut the crap already.

RIP Steve Jobs

I see the trends and culture part though. There is that stereotype of people buying Apple products because it makes them look sophisticated and I guess having money. Not to mention some people consider it hopping on the bandwagon by buying whatever Apple puts out for sale. I personally don't hate Apple since I have some of their products. I just face palm whenever a person tells me that they bought a Macbook Pro for primary school (I.E. typing papers, Facebook, E-mail, etc). I know it's their money, but they could have invested in just a regular Macbook for those needs. If that person was a Graphic Design or Music major, then I can see why they would get a Macbook Pro since programs like Final Cut Pro is an excellent editing software and the laptop itself is pretty strong.
