Life really isn't fair is it? One of the truly great contributors to the modern world dies at only 56 years of age, in a world where 90 year olds are learning to enjoy his technology.

Agree - sad, but is this the beginning of the end for Apple as we know it?

[Eastside Urchin]

Doubt it

Of course Android is far superior to an iPhone anyway.

[Eastside Urchin]

Yes, RIP. Steve Jobs was certainly an inspiration and described by Barack Obama as one of the greatest American innovators, however he was by no means whiter than white and had a tangled personal life having been given up for adoption by his biological parents from an early age. He is survived by wife Laurene and their three children however he also fathered a love child from a relationship and reportedly denied it in a legal document claiming he was infertile, he was later forced to acknowledge paternity.
