Steve Jobs has died

[BoringSupreez]

This made the geeks in my office realize that we're going to see the deaths of all the big name computer founders, like Bill Gates, before it's our turn. Kind of an odd feeling for a bunch of computer nerds.

Imagine how us video game fans will feel when people like Miyamoto, Will Wright and Tim Schafer die.

Do not forget about Nolan Bushnell. The father of gaming.

What was the context to the comment around playing Breakout in his honor? Did he code that or something?

This was the line to get into Apple Headquarters this morning. I pass Apple Headquarters everyday on my way to work and this is a first. It went down for 4 or 5 blocks.

In this picture I am about a quarter mile from Apple's main building entrance.

He asked Steve Wozniak to do it and they split the money, with Jobs keeping the extra bonus all to himself.

Well, not being an Apple fanboy and only knowing of some occasional sickness in recent years that was unexpected.

Boingboing's tribute theme today is fitting. http://boingboing.net/

as touching as that boingboing thing is, i cant imagine ever living the "ilife" or ever owning a apple, i would be lost without windows and its universal compatibility.
