Love him or loathe him , you can't deny his visionary on the products he brought to the world , and at 56 years of age to die of pancreatic cancer not a nice thing to go through as I lost a family member to this illness

A sad loss for the electronics industry

Terrible shame. If you have nothing nice to say,say nothing at all.

It is a very sad day. There are few visionaries in the tech industry like Steve. Paul

i-RIP

Very sorry to hear he's dead, but unless he manages to resurrect himself at least it'll prove he's not the new massiah.

As a human, sorry his life was ended at what might be considered early.

But hopeful that this will be an end to the market being flooded with products that force you to do it "their" way...... .

Known in 'the business' as clever marketing

I've been lucky enough to have seen him speak at a company "do" a few years ago and he does, well did, have an amazing power to captivate an audience and make them believe every word he says/said.

If you look at Apples' history they were resurrected when he returned in 1997 after he left in 1985, and the market rightly or wrongly saw him as the core of Apple ( )

It'll be intersting to see how the market respond now, especially after the damp squib that was the iPhone4S launch and not the iPhone 5. as was widely anticipated)

On a personal level, losing someone from cancer is always devastating, as I experienced with both my parents, Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue
