Default Goodbye Mr. Jobs

Just read that Steve Jobs has passed away. Surprising, to say the least. Whether you love Windows, Linux, or OS X, you cannot deny that Jobs forced innovation in the technology sector and inspired manufacturers to focus on usability, ergonomics, and design. Farewell technology icon, you will be missed.

Right now I'm using my Macbook Pro with feverish intensity. In his honor.

Never been a Mac/iEverything fan, but his role in making technology part of our daily lives is undeniable. His legacy will, no doubt, outlive him by decades.
