Jobs was a huge Beatles fan.

Abel, I found out that way too. First I got an AP Alert on my iphone 4. Then a text on my iphone. Then I was seeing it on Facebook. All on my iphone. I think that is very fitting.

He truly was an icon. Come to think of it, he probably invented the icon.

I am not an Apple fanboy (I used to be) But the Steve's were both very creative. Steve's creative mind has changed our lives for the better. He has created competition and competition is good for the industry. Microsoft, Samsung, HTC and many others would not be where they are today if not for the mind and drive of Steve Jobs. He will. Be missed. I also suspect if he were still with us and healthy and in the drivers seat, all the litigation we see today might be redirected into product advancement.

RIP Steve

Totally agree, not to mention that he somehow knew what the public/ clients were after rather then telling us what we want.

No matter what anyone says, I still think he's a "bit of all right" (in my Austin Powers voice) and Ill keep buying his/ Apples gadgets.

Dont know exactly where this come from ,News Corp claims it as their idea, but who knows. Only reason for posting it is , its a nice tribute
