Will be missed. He sure was an impact in the industry. His “distortion field” was real.

I owe my career to Steve. I got my first Apple //e when I was 14.

As he will remain as Chairman and Director as well as Tim Cook being the top guy now, things should remain pretty much the same one would imagine? [import]uid: 10389 topic_id: 14257 reply_id: 52574[/import]

Bound to come with the health issues. Poor guy.

I think as long as he stays on in some way shape or form then things will progress for Apple. Here is to hoping this doesn’t make them deviate from there current progression in advancing technology.

A remarkable visionary with determination, doggedness, and drive who along with Woz, forsaw home computers as the start of what would become “Gee Whiz” technology in future decades moving from science fiction to science fact! A “Doer” ---- not just a “Dreamer”. Few, if any, will ever accomplish what the 2 Steves did. [import]uid: 24502 topic_id: 14257 reply_id: 52590[/import]

Just accepted my first app for the app store at 9:12pm. Thanks Steve!

Truly awesome commercials - although a bit before my time :wink:

I was very sad to read the news at first, but then I felt happy about it - at the end of the day the guy is a legend, he’s worked very hard for a long time and this way he can still be very involved while also enjoying some much deserved R&R.
