I'm usually pretty indifferent. But I gotta say I'm pretty saddened by this. And I'm not even an Apple fan.

Yes, if only to pay our respects to the guy who almost single-handedly changed the face of consumer electronics for most of the past decade and a half.

Yep. All of us probably owe the improving design aspect of -all- our gadgets and raising the bar for portable music players to him. This includes the PS3 and laptops.

He was also responsible for introducing the GUI (OS with graphics) to the masses. If not, we might still be using MS-DOS to this day.

...and I don't even like Apple :/

I woke up to this news. It was not the best feeling in the world. I'm no hardcore Apple fan, but yeah, I know my computing-experience has been drastically affected because Steve Jobs lived (much in the same way that it was affected because Bill Gates lives, as well).

Sad day.
