Very sad day for many. :(

I would argue his loss is an end of an era.

    “Steve let the applause go on for a little bit, then, with much effort, settled down the crowd. When things got quiet, the first thing he said was: ‘That's an awful lot of applause considering that you guys are the ones who do all the work.’”

    Khad, that's a great quote from Steve. Thank you for putting here. Steve Jobs was one extremely bright and visionary person. Gifted.

    I can't imagine what the computing world would be, had he not walked this earth. May he rest in peace.

    Well said. Steve was demanding and even arrogant but he was humble in ways that you just don't see that often. He
    had a wonderful perspective on things (Loved his discussion on All Things Digital with Mossberg and Swisher)

    Hey wasn't a teddy bear but most great leaders aren't. He will be missed.

    Thank you for posting this Carl. I especially liked the title... it reminds us all that sometimes we need to put things in perspective.
