Steve Jobs, the mastermind behind Apple's iPhone, iPad, iPod, iMac and iTunes, has died, Apple said. Jobs was 56.
"We are deeply saddened to announce that Steve Jobs passed away today," read a statement by Apple's board of directors. "Steve's brilliance, passion and energy were the source of countless innovations that enrich and improve all of our lives. The world is immeasurably better because of Steve. His greatest love was for his wife, Laurene, and his family. Our hearts go out to them and to all who were touched by his extraordinary gifts."
The homepage of Apple's website this evening switched to a full-page image of Jobs with the text, "Steve Jobs 1955-2011."
Clicking on the image revealed the additional text: "Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being. Those of us who have been fortunate enough to know and work with Steve have lost a dear friend and an inspiring mentor. Steve leaves behind a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple."
Jobs co-founded Apple Computer in 1976 and, with his childhood friend Steve Wozniak, marketed what was considered the world's first personal computer, the Apple II.
Shortly after learning of Jobs' death, Wozniak told ABC News, "I'm shocked and disturbed." Industry watchers called him a master innovator -- perhaps on a par with Thomas Edison -- changing the worlds of computing, recorded music and communications.
In 2004, he beat back an unusual form of pancreatic cancer, and in 2009 he was forced to get a liver transplant. After several years of failing health, Jobs announced on Aug. 24, 2011 that he was stepping down as Apple's chief executive.

There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.

Ogromna je šteta što prerano odlaze ovakvi vizionari koji su nam svakodnevicu i živote mogli obogatiti još kojekakvim korisnim novotarijama i gadgetima. Možda baš zahvaljujuci Jobsu uskoro uspijemo uspostaviti internetsku vezu s drugim svijetom. |
Ja necu imati s kim ostati mlad ako svi ostarite, i ta ce mi mladost teško pasti... |

mislio sam da postoji lijek protiv raka, ili barem protiv vrsta tumora. Kada on sa svojih 8 milijardi $ nije mogao da se spase, sada mi je stvar jasnija. RIP |

Da, veliki vizionar, zaista, samo ga je bolest mogla zaustaviti... A mucio se dugo, pa mislim je to sigurno negdje 10 godina trajala agonija oporavka pa pogoršanja.
Pocivao u miru!

Veliki vizionar i covjek koji je ucvrstio temelje konzumentskog drustva i napravio veliki korak prema demokratsko-robovlasnbickom sistemu novog svjetskog globalnog poredka . Covjek bez imalo socijalne kompetencije koji je postao stupac iste . Tvorac zombija koji nemaju svoje razmisljanje i svakih 6 mjeseci kupuju novi produkt , iako je stari jos u funkciji . Covjek koji je iza sebe ostavio igracke koje ce kontrolirati vas zivot. Kapa dolje ..heh |

Da nije on, došao bi netko drugo na njegovo mjesto, možda s boljim društvenim vještinama i bujnijom kosom... U biti, bilo je neizbježno, No, shvacam ironiju. |
