I think by now you all know one of the biggest icons of the late 20th century and the 21st century is dead. After many years of fighting cancer he finally gave up on October 5th 2011. In his 56 years of life he managed to revolutionize the way we use computers, the way we listen to music and the way we communicate. Steve jobs was able to invent things we didn't know we needed until he created them, he was able to think outside the box to create objects everyone thought were impossible to make, and that's why he'll be greatly missed. Yes, I'm a Mac
After working with HP for about two years Steve Jobs and one of his former co-workers decided to found their own company and created the Apple I in Steve Jobs' garage. Steve Jobs sold his van to help finance their new invention. The new device sold well but not as well as their first big hit, the Apple II. Jobs was one of the first persons to realize the potential of user interface based computers. Apple's new computer came with something new, a mouse. A mouse is something every computer needs now and it totally changed the way we use computers. Steve Jobs was also the first person that gave us different types of fonts for our computers, something that now every computer has.
In 2001 Steve Jobs showed us a new device that revolutionized the way we listen to music now a days, it was called the iPod. Everyone of us has used an iPod at one point of our lives and I still remember the first time I used one and the way it felt to have something in my hands that had all the songs I liked.
In 2003 Steve Jobs introduced us to their new invention, their first digital store, which will later become the biggest digital store in the world.
In 2007 Steve Jobs once again revolutionized another industry, this time he revolutionized the cellphone industry by introducing one of the first smart phones to the world that even had a touch screen! After the release of the iphone many companies created smart phones similar to the iphone but nothing that could be better than the iphone since Apple was always one step ahead.
In 2008 Jobs made his new smart phone even better by introducing the App Store, a digital store for apple developers to sell their apps. Since its launch developers have developed and app for almost everything you can think of and everything you might need on a day to day basis.

he was a good god damn salesman. -Very true
He was a visionary not an inventor.

Now that Steve Jobs has sadly left us here on earth, how will Apple decide on how they create their products now?
Will this mean that their products continue to improve all the way?
Or does it mean that with arguably one of the best creators of Modern Technology dead, Apple will never be what they once was when Jobs was there?
Personally, I think that Apple will take a slight dip into their productions because of the heartbreak caused with Jobs dying. Within the Apple Inc family they all work together to accomplish one think, the best Modern Technology... The person who always used to influence them is now dead.

the thing i like about computers in 80s commercials, tv and movies is 1: computers can do ANYTHING, and it was esy to convince people since not so many had ever used one. 2: adults cant use computers but all kids are geniuses at them automatically!
i was always a mac-fan myself but at a local amusement park they had an arcade with 1976 breakout in working order! it was always the only ting i wanted to do there and everyone asked why, id say because jobs and woz built it! no one ever got that.
i also always pictured jobs and gates in older age, like their 80s with a more friendly relationship, similar to adams and jefferson in their late years. sitting and talking about the old old days as 2 old wise men, now it wont ever happen

oh and one more thing, i got so used to seeing jobs so sick and frail that when u see him at a healthy normal weight in older video, he looks to fat, anybody else think this?
