Dude, Steve Jobs died of cancer.

[Chaplin]

Even if you don't like apple, you have to admit the guy was very innovative.

I am a sad goose today.

[angelusbr]

Cancer is one of the worst diseases...
I hope he's in a better place now
The worst thing is that my family has a LOT of cases of prostate cancer. I know I'll be next in line. *shivers*

[ChewyChewy]

Requiescant in Pacem, Steve Jobs.

[Sleet]

It's a darn shame. For once a premature celebrity death isn't even remotely his fault.

[Penwrite]

When I first heard, I thought it was some kind of stupid joke. I wish it was some kind of stupid joke.

[valerio]

The man was a rare kind of visionary, he actually renewed the concept of PC entertainement and of mobile phone. He gave us the Mac and Pixar. He was a genius, and will be sorely missed.
RIP, Steve. Your inheritance shall be your medal in the chest of history.

[1boredcanadian]

I just read a small story about his life and all I can say is gone too soon.

[Helmetzid]

requescat en pace

[ctcmjh]

I may not be an Apple fan, but this man truly was a great innovator and an invaluable contributor to the greater good of science and society. His personal motto: "Live every day like it were his last."

technically, he bought Pixar. it already existed before that.

still, it is a sad day in Technology, my friends.

[Alex]

Wow, it really is a sad day. I can't believe he died at such a young age. And yes, 56 is young for dying...

[The Grey Wolverine]

muffins and cookies, I HATE macs, but cancer man, cancer. This is a sad day, I hate what Apple makes, but he had a great idea to give people personal computers, that is innovative.

RIP Steve Jobs...the man who always wore jeans on stage to make him seem no higher then the normal person. A great man indeed.

[Chaplin]

Guys, a person died, not a brand >_>

[Tiggy]

As sad as it is, I have to agree with Chaplin.

It's one person, guys.

[44R0NM10]

a person who had brilliant ideas and vision, and has no doubt changed the world. If not that reason, then the reason that all people have a right to mourn after somebody dies.

No offense you 2, but I'd appreciate not being disrespectful to when people are showing their respect for a late person.

[Sleet]

I'll go ahead and cross-post this. Penwrite posted this in the pony thread:

Well, if you had read the posts, you'd know that I was saying that Apple itself didn't die, Steve Jobs died, and people should stop acting like there will be no more Apple products, and realize that this thread is for mourning Steve Jobs.

[44R0NM10]

my apologies, I assumed when you said that, you meant:

"guys, a person's dead. Don't make it a brand."

I didn't quite understand what you meant basically.

And that is awesome

[Dissension]

Guys, let's try not to bring up potentially inflammatory topics.

Right, won't happen again.

So anyways, I was walking to dinner earlier today, listening to music on my iPhone. It felt kind of weird, I'm not sure how to explain it.

[Kitela]

Good idea there, Diss.

As I said previously, I'm not an apple person, but it's sad to see such a brilliant mind go.

[Teh Brawler]

U-um, excuse me.....

It hasn't actually been announced why he passed. Cancer is the most likely choice, but we don't know for sure.

But it is truly sad to see him go.

[Tattorack]

I believe that Apple computers and Pixar animation wont be the same with him around ......

[Beagle]

I had been on the phone/working on a history paper when the news announced it, so I wasn't aware of it when it was first announced. Two hours later, I checked my Facebook, and the first status I see was from a friend wishing his family peace in the time of their hardship. I sat there and stared at my phone, legitimately in shock. I then turned on CNN, and cried when I found out that it was the truth, because Steven Jobs was my role model. I didn't even know his cancer been that severe (I thought he had been in remission), or that his health had been slowly declining for a while now.

I know I'm very much attached to all my Apple products, and my thoughts go out to his resting soul and his family.

[Teh Brawler]

I believe that Apple computers and Pixar animation wont be the same with him around ......

Funnily enough, I didn't know that he had that much impact on Pixar until today.

[Tattorack]

Well, he invented some pretty powerful program tech for Disney Pixar, that's why the cg of
those films are always so amazing (and getting better)
