Brony-Vas-Normandy Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Woah. Apple won't be the same without him.I loved my Mac until I had to stop using it. Sad to hear the man behind it all has passed.I guess it shouldn't really come as a surprise, but I wasn't expecting this.I think I'll go listen to my iPod now.

Doc Hoof MD Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Damn. I never really liked Apple products but I did respect him. He took that company a long way.R.I.P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Total-Tortilla Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 I have the sadness. My iPod and MacBook are now in memory of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fawkes Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Seriously, not 1 minute before refreshing Canterlot and seeing this topic (where I first learned of his death) I was synching new music to my iPod. I rarely add new music to my iPod. Gave me some chills...R.I.P. you amazing, visionary of a man~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RarityDash Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 I have always admired Jobs and have enjoyed the Apple products I've bought. I am sorry to hear of his death. I wish the best to those close to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starfox64x Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 I dont want to make it sound like the two events are related... but didn't Apple JUST have a big announcement thing like two days ago? not only that it was about a month ago he resigned as the CEO... I'm just thinking that with the announcement (Which i heard were kinda blegh...) and his death, stock is going to plummit...But that's Apple, i feel really bad, and frankly shocked about the news... He was pretty cool, and he's helped make a lot of cool things... Rest in peace... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buxy Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Without Jobs work in the technology field none of us would be sitting here doing what we're doing. Home computing owes everything to what he did. He was the first to make this accessible to the general public, and without those foundations to build on, or the competition to keep up with (I'm looking at you, Mr Gates), we would not have the computers we do now. He changed how we interact with each other, and with the world. He changed how people learn. He revolutionized the music industry. Even though I've never owned a Mac myself, I learned to program on an Apple ][ and my iPhone is an extension of my arm. He was an amazing man, and he seriously kicked cancer's ass. Pancreatic cancer patients generally have an expectancy of 6 months to a year after diagnosis. My uncle passed away 7 months after his. Steve Jobs was diagnosed in 200****ing3. Go Steve.

Tenkan Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 RIP Steve Jobs. I never really used an Apple product, but you still have my admiration towards your great skills in technological devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Krackle Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 I am sad to see any scientist or engineer go. I can't help but wonder where his company, who ran more or less solely on his ideas, will go from here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlindJester Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 I personally am not really sad he's gone. I'm sad we lost another human life to cancer and I'm quite appreciative of what he did to help get us where we are today. As a person I don't really like Steve Jobs nor did I like or use his products so I don't feel too bad about him being gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Obvious Posted October 21, 2011 Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 The world would be a very different place without Steve Jobs.He accomplished so much since co-founding Apple and producing personal computers that would go onto define the industry pretty much as a whole. When he got kicked out, he produced NeXT which formed a foundation for so much once he was brought back to oversee the iPod, iPad, iPhones, Macbooks and OS X. Each one of those has had a profound impact on modern technology.I'm really sad to see him go. Actually, rather devastated. But he's left one hell of a legacy.R.I.P Steve Jobs. You will be missed.

kal413 Posted October 21, 2011 Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 I share everyone else's condolences.I only wish that I paid more attention to how he really influenced the world earlier. Regardless, he was still a great man.RIP Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
