Description He taught us all to.

Steve, you will sorely be missed. Your contribution to mankind is forever sealed.

5 minute Photoshop deal. It's purposeful simplicity makes it all the more of a tribute to his minimalism about computers. Bill Gates may have put a computer on every desk, Steve was the one that put one in every home.

Original came from "Apple.com".

The mere fact that i'm not going 'WINDOWS UYAAS@' is a tribute to how awesome this guy was and how much we miss him. all of us.

RIP to the guy who started his computer company thanks to his belief that a fruit and nut diet would negate his need to bathe (leading to him having the night shift to plan tech with all the time in the world)
it's true...serious...
T^T i can't even joke about this guy anymore

Having read the biography...

I can't remember.

 

I think he might have worked on it at first, but then got removed.

I think he worked on the Macintosh because he got kicked off the Lisa project.

yerp. Everybody gotta start somewhere... no guarantee you'll end up anyplace, but still ^^

i forgot my iPod this morning and almost had a heart attack - spent most of the day whistling the various Dvorak strains drifting in and out of my head. I owe him so much that i can't live without now.

I may not like apple computers, but you gotta hand it to the guy. He was a genius.

Indeed. He knew what me craved, before we even knew what he craved.
