His products are overpriced and nothing more than average, still a shame he died.

Its pretty sad to hear when anyone dies from cancer. My mother passed from cancer, so I feel for the Jobs family.

With Engi's passing related to aspergers,; did anyone see the newest episode of south park? Really odd coincidence.

Whether you like his products or not, he revolutionized mobile technology and got the ball rolling. Without him, we would be no where near where we are. Apple helps push things along in a lot of areas. Pancreatic cancer sucks... :(

He's cool, and I'm a' let you finnish, but Dennis Ritchie just passed away too. Steve Jobs compared to Dennis Ritchie is like comparing Mozes to God.

I can't stand this attention when dmr gets zero >:(

Steve Jobs stole all his products ideas and research from Xerox[1], including the iPad[2]. He revolutionized nothing. Even the Apple clickweel was stolen, from a Braun radio[3], just like every other iProduct is a complete copy of Braun design.[3]

Not to mention the sweatshop labor and Foxconn suicides >:(

Now why would anyone want remember a greedy copycat CEO?
