I was shocked to turn on the news this morning and learn that Steve Jobs had passed away, aged 56.
Say what you will about his business practices, his draconian ruling of Apple, but the man was a true visionary, and should be remembered for the technology he enabled. without him, would we have today's smartphones, or even tablets like the ipad?
I find it incredibly touching that even his greatest rival from the 80s and 90s, Bill Gates, passed on his condolences, saying that he was honoured to have known him.
My heartfelt condolences to his family for their loss.
Rest in peace, Steve Jobs 1955 - 2011.
