All the ways he changed my life were productive, intuitive, fun and happy ones. Rest in Peace, Steve Jobs.

He was a BRILLIANT man, yet had his demons. It was said that he was both a joy and a devil to work for. His creative mind changed human interaction as we once knew it.

Just finished his biography.

Default Steve Jobs

As I sit here writing this on my amazing iPad, I am sad hearing of his passing. I'll be listening to my waterproof iPod while swimming in the morning..... and where would I be without my iPhone? I am so spoiled!!!

RIP Steve Jobs

I, too, am saddened. A modern day Galileo some say. Rest in Peace, Steve.

Steve Jobs passed away today from pancreatic cancer--a great man, a great mind who will be very missed, even by those who never knew him.

I liked the man. He could be a bully but was warm and caring. At least he is no longer suffering. RIP.

All the above comments are true, even that Steve Jobs changed the world.

Born of a young American girl and a Syrian student, he was adopted by an average middle-class couple.

The opportunity to realize his brilliant potential is another statement about what is best about our 'melting pot' and our wonderful country.
