    Whether you are an Apple user or not, it is undebatable that a great man, and genius, has passed away today. I remember back when the iPods were first being released, and the progression of their products to what we have today. It's hard to really accept that Steve is gone, because in those years, he seems to have been immortalized. He has affected all of our lives for the better one way or another. I will miss Steve and I am sorry to his family for their loss.

    I often jokingly hated on Apple, but no one can deny the impact Jobs had on the advancement of technology. He had tremendous foresight, even until his death (when he stepped down as CEO a couple of months back). Rest in peace.

    By the way, here's an inspiring link to a commencement speech Jobs made at Stanford in 2005.

    Defied dress code today wearing my black turtleneck, jeans, and tennies. Also wore a little heart on a tag that read iSad Steve Jobs 1955-2011.

    Have you seen stevejobsday.com? I haven't been since I heard he'd left us...

    RIP Steve.

    If it wasn't for Steve we all would be forced into using that lousy Windows crap.

    Sent from one of my many Apple products, Thanks to you Steve.
