[QUOTE="Relique du Madde, post: 5700342, member: 42169"] How am I expressing my distaste? I may not like him (from the pov of someone who only sees his corporate ideology) or his company, but I respect the guy. I'm not going to sit around morning him, like everyone else since from what I understand, he would have not either. He lived every day like it was his last and did not mourn the fact that he was dying nor did he give up and start feeling sorry for himself. Instead, he kept working, he kept living, and kept enjoying each day of his life until the last. Unlike many people, I hope Apple wasn't just Steve Jobs, because I hate the very thought that Technology will suffer because one man died. Instead, I like to beleive that apple was a sum of it's parts since then technology would not suffer. I want Tim Cook to stand up and say, "Steve Jobs made apple a house hold name (and help popularized technology), but Apple wasn't only Steve Jobs. Although he may be dead, he will remian in our memory and we will continue to innovate in his honor." More importantly I want people to believe it instead of thinking, "Steve Jobs is dead. Game over." So do not take my tearless eyes, refusal to mour,n and my celebration as disdain for his life. Do not take my desire of seeing what Apple makes next and my desire for Tim Cooks to step up as my saying "Steve Jobs doesn't matter in the greater scheme of things. Apple Sucks. Hate hate hate Grr!". Instead, take it as acknowledgement that life is a series of cycles and once one ends the next begins. Take it as a hope that the next cycle for Apple (and Technology in general) is both not the last and not one of decline since I am looking towards the future of Tech and hoping that it is greater then the past.
