Steven Paul Jobs: February 24, 1955 – October 5, 2011


Steve Jobs passed away on Wednesday, at age 56, of pancreatic cancer.

A brilliant mind, a marketer, innately creative, Jobs and Apple will be firmly and inexorably linked forever.

Jobs resigned as Apple CEO on August 24th. I didn't believe that he would last the year. He did not.
There's an old Wayne Gretzky quote that I love. 'I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been.' And we've always tried to do that at Apple. Since the very very beginning. And we always will.
—Steve Jobs

    I feel for his family.
    If Mrs. Jobs finds her anniversaries in the future as tough as I'm finding mine today, I don't wish that on ANYBODY.
