Steve Jobs Dies

I'm not a technical person and I'm a woman, so technical gadgets etc. don't play a huge role in my life the way they do for many men, but I have to say that I LOVE my iphone like it's a living thing.  I have raved on to friends numerous times about my awe of the technology that Apple created/developed with that phone and the subsequent ipad etc.

I have also always admired how Apple not only withstood the onset of Microsoft all those years ago, but excelled by using innovation and creativity as its centrepiece. 

So when I read this morning that Steve Jobs, one of the founders of Apple, had died at 56, I was both shocked and deeply saddened.   The message on the Apple site is both moving and inspiring. 

What a man.  What a legacy.  What an inspiration.  What a loss.

RIP Steve - you are one of my heroes.
