    Really sad news. That was very short time after his resignation. You will be missed Steve. :( Is this good word to use in the news ? like 'Steve Jobs is dead'. I sounds same as Osama is dead. feels without respect.

    Personally for me, I think its better if they use the word "has passed away" than "is dead".

    Signature construction in progress. Sorry for the inconvenience.

      Yes, That's what I also thought. In my language no one will use word 'Dead' for friends and family. it considered rude, you can use it for animals or things...

              Wow. Not unexpected, but not expected so soon after leaving Apple. His passing is an incalculable loss to our entire industry. His vision and creativity directed not only Apple, but affected the direction of every company that surrounds us. I raise a :beer: to his genius and send a :rose: to his family. Thoughts and prayers be with them.

                                    Like many here I'm no fan of Apple, but like many I am saddened by his death. We have lost not only one of the founders the modern industry, but a great visionary too.
