BehindTheMask Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Why is his death so much more tragic then those in 3rd World countries who die of curable diseases?

Yeah, death sucks, but I'm not going to pretend that I care about someone I've never met. [/quote] Because he's played a significant role in how tech has changed in the past few decades. And even if you don't know him, he's well known, so there is a difference. Plus he was a tech dude, so people that go to these kinds of forums would be more interested in this then the normal person. I mean, just think about how people reacted with MJ's death. Really, whenever someone famous dies this happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not mourn his death as much as I commemorate his life. The truth is, without Steve Jobs the computer industry may not have been where it is today. You and I may not have been having this conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CDDRodrigo Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Nobody can deny that he made a revolution and that he single-handed raised such a big company TWICE, though. I don't know him personally either, but I would be an idiot to not recognize what he did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
