Man, even though he wasn't the most... erhm.. nice? CEO.. he was a great guy. And a True visionary.

All the best to the Jobs family and Apple. Let's see how Apple will change with just Tim Cook leading it.

Poor Steve..

Steve Jobs, the Cave Johnson of real life.

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.

Most importantly, he lead to the popularization of the GUI.

Either you're an idiot. Or making an uncalled for joke.

Either way, we don't need that

I'm tempted to say is that it's either negligence, speculation, denial, or a joke.

I don't think any of those warrant for him being called a moron.
