Not an Apple fan-boy, but this had me choked up...
Beautiful and fitting tribute, IMO.

Yea, it kinda hits home doesn't it.
I read about this yesterday....The young teen from Hong Kong who created it, got quite the viral hits when he posted it. Apparently, there's already people pushing Tshirts and other apparel on EBay already..

Few men [or women] have had as much influence on the world as SJ.

I AM an Apple fanboy. I've worked for Apple for 5 years. Steve Jobs was my boss, mentor, and one of the finest minds to ever walk the Earth. It's a very sad thing that he left so soon in life, but the things he accomplished in that time are astounding. SJ created the best company on this planet and changed millions, if not billions, of lives.
I love this icon, and I switched my Twitter profile to this. We have ongoing memorials at all our Apple Stores that people have placed all sorts of stuff. How many CEOs do you know that shared this type of bond with their customer base? He will be greatly missed... |

Only the inspiration he has left us to "think different" can surpass the mind and man Steve Jobs was. Not many will leave such a legacy. What shall each of us leave?
