to be honest he was the man that designed half of apples products and patients, 100 designers could not match what he can do, i love apple products as they are easy to use but i prefer a PC to do my gaming on
as a apple customer im sad by the news and as a human being im saddened
RIP Mr Jobs

Girlfriends mum said he had cancer 3 times and the type he had was the worst type.
He only stepped down from Apple 1 month ago?
Must have known he hadn't had long left.
He was the only man stopping Apple from moving onto Blue Ray (he hated Sony)
Can see things at Apple changing.
A sad sad loss RIP

pancreatic, he had a liver translpant etc... Normally you get three months to live with that sort of cancer, he battled for 9 years.

I suppose there will be BR drives in next gen apple products, it's not like they have a choice or the luxury to give some attitude now. Same will apply with microsoft and their Xbox. Long awaited revenge(25+ years-see betamax) from Sony tbh.
RIP Mr Jobs.

Apple will be fine. He hasn't been fully running the company for quite a while
Shame to see him go

Not an apple fan, but appreciate what he did. Definately pushed the boat out with regards to interaction and design.
