Jobs had a big influence on the tech careers of a lot of geeks. Many don't even realize it. Steve and Woz made computers personal. The Apple IIe was in nearly every school when I was a youngster. They made the mouse common place. There are very few in this world that can say that they changed it. Steve Jobs was one that genuinely could.
Guess he really wanted an iPhone 5 too. I like Apple products, simply because they work, with next to no glitches, in my experience. Just traded in a 2.5 year old iPhone 3G on a 4G, in fact. RIP, dude. You made some innovative shit.
I know most of you who are joking about this are really joking, but for those of you cold-hearted fuckers that are saying you hate Jobs because you hate Apple really have no idea how much Steve Jobs affected your everyday life.
Sad day for all tech fans even if they don't know why. I grew up using an Apple IIc, then a 2e. Steve Jobs and Wozniak dared to challenge the great IBM and its clones to do something different. A LOT of people are glad they did. Those who haven't used anything Apple...they won't get it and don't care.

Wonder how the 400,000+ workers at Foxconn are taking the news?
