It is a sad that we lost the creative talents of Steve Jobs so soon. I have been a fan of Apple since our family bought an Apple 11 in the early 80's and soon moved to the Mac. I am from the Bay Area and have always loved their products.

I sit now reflecting on all the tech devices that Apple has given every day ordinary people. I write now on a MacBook Air, I text on an iPhone. Steve you were a visionary and will be sorely missed.

My first computer was an Apple IIe for about $3200! Without the printer! It was a great tool and really got me into computers.

Thanks, Steve!

His genius will definitely be missed. He left a great legacy. I, too, am a Macbook user.

And it was easy, that was his genius. He made it easy for everyone.
Yes, I remember those expensive and quickly outdated days.

We always wanted an Apple but couldn't afford it...
He was a innovated pioneer in communication. He will be missed...
