Fred Shuttlesworth died today, too. A cyber rights leader and a civil rights leader go at the same time. RIP.

Dude was very creative and a good marketer. Had he been successful earlier in his career with marketing, I feel the MACs would outnumber the PCs by a huge margin.

RIP. Just how successful is Apple?

What if I had bought Apple stock instead?

Cancer is a bitch. If it got Steve Jobs who had all the mf'ing money in the world, you know its an equalizer.

He was an amazing CEO and a true visionary. Wish I would have worked for him.

R.I.P. Steve Jobs. It's hard to walk a block nowadays without seeing at least one product he's been a major influence on.

He lived 8 years with a cancer that was supposed to kill him in months. His money had to have been a factor in that.

But yeah, F cancer. 56 is way too young. Who knows what else he could have accomplished if he had another 20 years. Shame.

The lady that works for me was just telling me she interviewed with Steve Jobs back like 38 or so yrs ago. She said they interviewed her at a card table and they said she would be paid by the hour and with a stock bonus. She also said his partner was there but she cannot remember his name.

Talk about a missed opportunity.

He received a liver transplant after it was known he had terminal cancer. Besides money, what else is there that made him qualify for that procedure?
