Rest in Peace Tech Man
Yesterday, co-founder of one of the largest technology companies died, Steve Jobs, former CEO of Apple, Inc. He helped revolutionize the current technological world with Apple and their computers, then helped the digital music world with the ipod and it’s many advances and then with it top peak of a machine in the iphone. Now granted, the ipod isn’t the only mp3 player out there, the macbook isn’t the only notebook out there (and the other ones have Adobe Flash) and the iphone isn’t the only cell phone (and isn’t even the #1 cell either) and of course, their overpriced tablet, ipad and ipad 2, but what got then to where they are, where Jobs wanted them to be are two things, easy to use and marketing. All the Apple products are easy to use, a grandmother can program one of their toys. However, it is Jobs and Apple’s marketing department who needs the applaudes for their true success. Steve Jobs knew what we wanted to hear and we basically bought into it. Hell, I even used to own an ipod till I got a Blackberry and could use it for my music.
I am sorry to see Steve Jobs go and have a feeling Apple will go along with it…….. unless they get Adobe Flash…. then they will actually compete.
Rest in Peace Steve Jobs. Thanks for playing the game of life and giving us lots of toys to play with.
