Steve Jobs is dead. Four words that to many people may mean nothing. Steve who? Thanks to the iPod, iPhone, iBook etc etc, people may have a sort of idea who Steve Jobs was. Having owned Apple computers from before Steve launched the first system software to run with a visual interface, I have been part of Steve Jobs inspirational coaster ride from the beginning. In the early days his vision outpaced what the hardware could deliver but slowly the vision became a reality. Those of us that kept the faith and believed in Steve’s vision have benefitted from the liberation the Apple vision has delivered. Steve Jobs fundamentally changed the civilised world and for the better. Few humans can say that. I hope this will not be the end of his vision and those that are left in charge of his legacy will be good custodians, with his sense of adventure and innovation. Its a sad day, the world has lost an incredible mind too soon.
