”Because the people who think they are crazy enough to change the world are the ones who do” ~ Steve Jobs
Steve Jobs lost his 8 year battle with Cancer (or more specifically: neuroendocrine tumor arising from the islet cell of the pancreas). Here is a great article that goes into the depth of his treatment. Such sad news for a technological genius of our time.

Steve Jobs the founder of Apple reinvented technology from his basement and grew such a great and powerful company.
I myself have been loving apples and Apples ever since I got my first taste in college. Then I purchased one by special order – 10 years ago these babies were not in stores, oh no. My husband, boyfriend at the time, had to drive to some unfamiliar address and knock on a stranger’s front door and pick the big box up from his basement. And this is Toronto not some little town in Cambodia. It wasn’t until years later the first Apple stores appeared in our city. Who knew that the craze was just beginning with the iPod’s, iPhones, iPads…. Steve Jobs was the visionary behind this technological movement. He was a brilliant, creative and inspirational man way ahead of his time. Thank you for reinventing the wheel! You will be missed by many but never forgotten.
Gotta love them Apples! Gotta love Steve. RIP.
(edited ps: I wonder if he went to see Burzynki I mentioned here?)

mm. I remember using apples as a kid, middle schoolish, at school. But I dont think I enjoyed the experience until college, like you. Then, of course, they were(and always will be) the (design) industry standard and so I had the pleasure of working with macs the duration of my short-lived design career. Then mu husband bought a pc for our home and ech, but I worked with what I had until we could get a mac again. And oh is it ever good to be back! There’s nothing like ‘em. That’s his legacy.
Gosh his passing is so sad. I don’t use Apples and I don’t have an ianything, but still. What an incredible person . . .
