It is a sad, sad day.

Wow, I honestly don't know what to say.
I'll be dressing my bird in black to honor Steve, he always seems to have plenty of black shirts doesn't he?

**Zeus** · 10-05-2011, 08:29 PM

I feel bad for contributing to his death by being one of the angry customers complaining about the iPhone 4S. After all, half the reason for his loss at cancer was the stress from the business.

Cool story bro.

1) Lost my grandmother two years ago to pancreatic cancer, same as Jobs.
2) Lost someone else close to me due to cancer, just last year.
3) Joking about anyone dying, especially due to cancer, especially during Breast Cancer Awareness Month? Tacky.

Pardon me if I think your joke was terrible. Go have some people close to you die due to various cancers and see if you dig jokes about people dying because of it.

Have a swell forum day.

Rest in Peace.

We had a lot of computers in our house when I was a kid, but our Apple II was by far the best!

Not about winning or losing arguments. And Royce schooled me coupla times back in the day.

RIP, Black Turtleneck.

It *is* sad.

I hadn't heard until Ephemeris told me in SL. Bye, Steve--you'll be sorely missed.

A little blast from the past:

ETA since I hadn't read all the earlier part of the thread: Sorry, Eb, but my vote is with Moog on this. My grandmother, my grandfather, my mother, 2 aunts all died of various forms of cancer and an uncle who died of pancreatic cancer. If you've seen it close up, it's really hard to see any humor in it.

Apple II... what a memory...
I remember i was amazed when i first saw it.
Naturally like all little kid, the first question was where are the games??
And my dad with a smile gave me those big dictionnary size books c++, basic,... "there program one yourself..."
That was really hard for a french speaking kid at first.

I really thought Steve Jobs would get better again and remake an other amazing come back.

You will be greatly miss Steve.

Rest in pieve Steve, here an extract of his famous speech

A great man has left this world, but I hope others will take his challenge to go against standards and pre-made concepts.
Innovation is the way to go and remeber... stay hungry, stay foolish!

**Necrobane** · 10-06-2011, 01:04 AM

RIP Steve. On a possibly brighter note, the iPhone 4S is coming out - thoughts?

**Onaraasider** · 10-06-2011, 06:42 AM

RIP. Microsoft is probably celebrating right now

Godspeed Mr. Jobs. (sent from my iPhone)

**Paar** · 10-06-2011, 07:03 AM

RIP Steve Jobs, Thx for all the things you've done ...

A bit too soon but who cares this is got to be the funniest post I have seen in a long time!

**JaytB** · 10-06-2011, 09:03 AM

Personally I think it's a sad day. I believe he truly was a visionary and a 1-of-a-kind CEO. At the time when I was teaching presentation techniques in a previous job experience, I often used parts of his presentations as an example on how to do it right.

I'm in no way an apple fanboy, but one has to admit that Apple, under Steve, brought some revolutionary products to the market.

Only thing I can say is R.I.P. Steve
