Steve Jobs, RIP.

I think I understand the naming of the new iPhone: 4S, "for Steve".

TMZ said it was peaceful.

He was at home with his wife, Laurene and his four children.

There are the Steve Jobs of the world that represent the rugged individuals. And there are the Baraq Hussein Obamas that represent parasites.

Visionary who understood the potential of technology and how it can be made accessible, and the importance of industrial design. Didn’t agree with his politics, but

RIP Steve. Shows that even billions don’t matter when your time is gone.

There may be fewer of these people.

All you have to do is look at Wall Street and the future looms.

I heard one of those slobs say today “that they were rolling up their sleeves”.

Must mean they were shooting up.

A great man. Jobs and Bill Gates have defined personal computing from it’s inception. The world needs a lot more guys like this and a lot fewer lawyers and MBAs. A great pity he will not see the new Apple HQ.

One of the greatest creative minds in human history is laid to rest. Mozart, Einstein, Ford, Jobs - all saw the world not as it was, but as it could be.
