A giant and innovator gone .............. sad he will be missed. An innovator in his early years but when he came back to Apple from Pixar he definately re-invigorated the company. Mobile phones and tablets had been around for years before Apple got on the band wagon and MADE those products the must have products that everybody had to have through really slick marketing and advertising!! A great man gone ................... My thoughts go to his family

Steve Jobs created the user interface.
Actually, no. The GUI concept was originally created by Xerox. Steve Jobs undoubtedly contributed to its success, but he can't be given all the credit.

Sad to lose someone so young though...

Red face A very sad day
He was a very tough boss and a despot (note Ilya). Though what he achieved for the IT world will always be remembered.
