he was a great businessman & all that entails (and yes he also invented but he wasn't spectacular in this regard)


it sucks he passed away and its horrible he had to go that way rip
He was one of the greatest if not greatest CEO of all times. The companies he founded had an affect on everything from cars to running shoes and almost everything we do in our lives.

Are you saying McDonalds and Coca Cola are successful because Warren Buffet invested in them?

You're one of those guys who hate Apple products because you are reluctant to change, and like the attention you get from dissing everybody around you for using an iPhone.

i dont feel we should really divert this RIP thread anymore than we/I have
but if you don't know about the "shady" part you should read more :)

"reluctant to change" :lol

What? Because he did drugs when he was young? That's the shady part you're talking about?

I don't mind diverting this thread. I want to hear why you (and others) feel that Steve Jobs is such a horrible person that you need to trash him the day he passed away.

drugs??? rofl

im talking about screwing over Wozniak, taking Gates bailout then going on an advertising campaign to kill msft and stalling collaborative efforts on cellphones so that he can get his iphone out and stealing patents and ideas and taking the issues to courts because he doesnt want to pay for them and manipulating the public into thinking they introduced something new and innovative when its not

etc etc etc


and trashing him?? no facts isn't trashing if you do something you should own up to it and expect everything to be talked about when remembering someone you dont gloss over things simply because a persons passed


and according to piuyi he was also a deadbeat dad


so that's all ill do at derailing this now so back to my last statement, do some reading (and if you try to dismiss it simply as "that's business" well u have questionable values)

So many non-contribution zeroes in this thread.

RIP Steve Jobs. Even though we all saw it coming, still a shock.

AC360 on CNN will have coverage of Jobs' passing as well as an interview with Steve Wozniak for those interested

Not to derail this thread anymore than it already has, but tablets were around for ages prior to the iPad. The only reason why Apple was able to popularize the market was because of the iPhone. The general population was very aware of what the phone could do, so simply creating a larger version of it in the form of a tablet was merely a common sense step. I'm sure if Apple hadn't done it, someone else would have.

That said, RIP. Consider him a visionary or view him as a crook, he still helped push the envelope in terms of marketing (and, unfortunately, control over one's products). However, no one deserves to die of cancer.

I don't know much about Jobs personal life and how he treats his daughter, most people don't care, and that's not why he's respected.

Not totally sure how Steve Jobs "screwed over" Wozniak. Pretty sure Wozniak left the company on good terms to pursue his own ventures. Besides, I'm sure hes still an Apple shareholder making a crap load of money from their stock. The only thing I found on the internet is that Jobs won't write the foreword of his autobiography? Is that the serious offense you're talking about?

Trashing Microsoft - you mean the mac vs. PC commercials? They were funny and not far from the truth. Don't see anything wrong with them. Microsoft has stepped on far more companies than Apple ever will.

I don't think either of us are knowledgeable to differentiate who is infringing whos patten. Look at Microsoft Zune, HP Touchpad, Samsung Touch, etc etc.

If it wasn't for Steve Jobs, the first Google phone woulda looked like this.

And I'm sure I'd be rocking a Blackberry right now if he didn't exist.
