A visionary inventor and entrepreneur, it would be impossible to overstate Steve Jobs' impact on technology and how we use it. Apple's mercurial, mysterious leader did more than reshape his entire industry: he completely changed how we interact with technology. He made gadgets easy to use, gorgeous to behold and essential to own. He made things we absolutely wanted, long before we even knew we wanted them. Jobs' utter dedication to how people think, touch, feel and interact with machines dictated even the smallest detail of the computers Apple built and the software it wrote. Jobs was born in San Francisco on Feb. 24, 1955, and adopted by Paul and Clara Jobs of Mountain View, California. He was a techie from a young age, often sitting in on lectures at Hewlett-Packard in Palo Alto while attending Homestead High School in Los Altos. He eventually landed a summer job there, working alongside Steve Wozniak. Read more from the link below http://www.wired.com/epicenter/2011/10/jobs/

Don�t be trapped by dogma � which is living with the results of other people�s thinking. Don�t let the noise of others� opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.� ~Steve Jobs May he rest in peace, may his family find comfort in the love that they shared.

HA! Fred Phelps and his flock at the Westborough Baptist Church are a waste of good oxygen. They take someone's heartache and use it as an opportunity to scream their message of ignorance and intolerance. It is commonly accepted that violence isn't the answer, but I don't think it has been given an honest try where these meatsacks are concerned.

Sherlock... I mean... KHANNNNNNN Posts: 25,544 Group: Vulcan Nirvana Member #14 Joined: November 18, 2005	David Hewlett (McKay in Stargate Atlantis) sent out this tweet earlier: "My 4 year old told me he's sad because the guy who made our computers died. It took me a while, but turns out he meant Steve Jobs?!" How awesome, firstly shows DH is teaching Baz all the important things in life & secondly just how far reaching everything Steve gave the world really is! Even 4 year olds know who he is & what he did.
