R.I.P. STEVE JOBS
1 9 5 5 - 2 0 1 1

Yesterday the world lost one of the most creative and inspirational people of the 21st Century, whether you appreciate Apple, its products and its visions or not you cannot deny that they have grown to be an extremely innovative company. Apple was Steve Job's baby, it was his passion and it was he who was the driving force behind so many of the fantastic products that today we cannot live without, be it your iPhone, iPod, iPad, Mac or whatever other device you use. They have changed the Music industry, enabled a way for the internet to allow the music industry to grow at a time when everyone was pirating music.

Over the past several years Steve has been battling with cancer on and off and has taken a few absences from his position as CEO at Apple, he however stepped down from his position in August 2011 saying that the time had come where he no longer was up to the job of being CEO. He kept fighting for his passion until the end but unfortunately his illness got the better of him and he passed away on the 11/05/2011 at the age of 56.

Steve Jobs will be sorely missed by all of those who love their Apple products, by all of those who have worked for and with him and most of all by his family and friends.

Rest In Peace.

A really talented person who started out working from his garage acheived so many things such a shame.
