I fully endorse your sentiments, Trent. I was allowed to cut my 'computer teeth' on an early 'Apple IIe' and a Visicalc Floppy Disc in the early 1970's.
Steve Jobs was probably unknown to the wider world in those days. Even then the Apple performance and functionality outstripped the Commodore Pet which was the other business desktop available then.
Steve was far too young an age to be taken from us.
Following so closely to the passing of Chris Lawrence, it seems that the worlds innovators and pioneers are leaving us too fast.
