Steve Jobs 1955 - 2011

Steve Jobs, Apple's co-founder, has passed away. The co-founder was 56 and had been battling a rare form of pancreatic cancer. This is the guy who was responsible for introducing the global community to desktop publishing and computer animated movies and creating the first commercially successful computer. Jobs co-founded Apple Computer at the age of 21 out of his garage in Cupertino, California. He built the business into a mind-boggling success with devoted fans around the world. Apple has since brought us the iPod, iPhone, iPad tablet and more. Sad... See, this goes to show: LIFE'S UNPREDICTABLE. We can seem to be healthy today, but might be sick with a certain disease or worst, have a rare disease that cuts our life on this earth short. Just a recent example: Steve Jobs was such a visionary (and I'm not alone in using the V word to describe him), yet he had to go so soon. We all have to cherish our lives and be the best that we can be everyday.

We hope Jobs's family will pull through and find solace in time of grief.

R.I.P, Steve Jobs. The whole world will miss you (and your would-be-but-never-will-be ideas to revolutionize computer technology around us).
