Because you're supposed to be joking about that kind of stuff.

You're blind. But anyway, you're not worth fighting with.

I think I'm worth it, but since it would be a fight about Apple, a subject I have little knowledge about, I'd most likely lose.

I'm just saying you shouldn't let your emotions cloud your judgement.

How did he die though?

Cancer, I surmise. Either way, it's not something you could have changed by going back in time.

It's not something I'm going to go and change, certainly.
(Not that I'm happy he's dead now, of course)

 

[AceWarhead]

Ya think Tim Cook will do better than Steve Jobs?

R.I.P Steve.

Well that part was in response to what he said prior to his edit.

 

[Hyro-Sama]

ok yes i was joking

Oh. It wasn't funny, even as a general joke.

I concur.

RIP Steve Jobs.

RIP and all that, but lets not get silly. I know this is going to upset a few people but in my humble opinion, Jobs' inventions were novel; not revolutionary.

I'm not an Apple fanboy or anything, but how Apple revolutionized the world:
-created an industry-changing personal computer (Apple II)
-popularized the smartphone (iPhone)
-created the best selling MP3 player of all time (iPod)
-opened the biggest, most popular digital music marketplace (iTunes)

If none of those are revolutionary to you, I don't know what is.

We obviously have vastly different ideas on what constitutes "revolutionary." I am thinking along the lines of the printing press, the steam engine; inventions of that caliber. That's revolutionary. A digital music store...? Not so much.

If we are going strictly on the basis of how popular and ubiquitous an invention is... well I guess post-its, sunglasses and sporks are revolutionary inventions as well.

What a sad day for the world. RIP Steve Jobs.

 

[SuperMarioMaster]

I'm not the biggest fan of Apple, but still that sucks...

R.I.P. Steve

RIP Steve Jobs... one of the fathers of the personal computer. Without him, Wozz, and Gates, we might never gotten access from our tiny computers to this thing we like to call the internet.

god bless Steve Jobs for all that he has done, he was an inspiration to anyone who picked up a mouse. If it wasn't for him bringing the competition that he did, computing just wouldn't be the same. Steve was a great man, and probably an even better family man.

may he rest in peace.

Sad day for apple fans, even sadder for his friends and family. Farewell Steve, thanks for the nifty phones.

 

[Maplemage]

RIP Steve Jobs, I use my iPod Touch everday because he invented it!

 

[machomuu]

Without him, I wouldn't have my DSi.

No, that was no pun, there would probably not be a DSi if it were not for Jobs. However, if there were, it still wouldn't be the same. The Store probably wouldn't exist and neither would the music player (which I use every night on my 3DS and previously my DSi/XL).

Poor Guy
R.I.P. Steve Jobs

 

[insidexdeath]

It's pretty sad news. Apple might collapse.

 

[moerik]

Too be honest, I never liked any of Steve's products, but I just feel sad that he died.

Rest In Peace, Steve Jobs, you deserve a place in heaven for your many great accomplishments.
