Today the sky is as gloomy as the news of the passing away of Apple's CEO Steve Jobs. It's a blow to me that send me a few steps back to my chair. Not because of surprise but because I know we've lost such a profound genius who had such great personality & highest attitude. A mastermind behind iMac, iPhone, iPad, iPod, iTunes, etc. Just yesterday I'm watching the inauguration of iPhone 4S. I extend my utmost sincere condolences. Steve has been such an inspiration to all of us.
A computer is a bicycle for our minds. - Steve Jobs
Microsoft Bill Gates said: "I’m truly saddened to learn of Steve Jobs’ death. Melinda and I extend our sincere condolences to his family and friends, and to everyone Steve has touched through his work.
Steve and I first met nearly 30 years ago, and have been colleagues, competitors and friends over the course of more than half our lives.
The world rarely sees someone who has had the profound impact Steve has had, the effects of which will be felt for many generations to come.
For those of us lucky enough to get to work with him, it’s been an insanely great honor. I will miss Steve immensely."
