Steve Jobs Dead at 56
From
Reuters, (( Steve Jobs, who transformed
the worlds of personal computing, music and mobile phones, died on Wednesday at
the age of 56 after a years-long battle with pancreatic cancer. ))
This comes at a total shock to me.
While I knew he was sick, before retiring, but I didn’t think it was
that bad.
While I am not an Apple guy, I have to give Jobs credit for retaking his
company and completely reinventing it.
Jobs had the iMac and the Power Mac look completely different from the
PC market and design, thus giving the Apple brand a different vibe and customer base. Out of that brand, another group of products
were born via the iPod, iPhone, and iPad.
Jobs also bought Pixar from George Lucas.
From there, he helped turned the company from a FX branch to a movie
studio that still makes millions today and has reshaped Disney. Jobs’ influence has changed the creative
way Disney runs its company.
Anyway, Steve Jobs will be missed.
