As it was reported last week.... Today, this is exactly one week after the death of the great man who was the co-founder of Apple Inc.
I don't exactly know the guy but I do know that he contributed a lot to out society and that prompted me to want to write about him for this one.
According to Wikipedia, Steven Paul Jobs was an inventor and entrepreneur. And apparently he co-founded Pixar Animation Studios too....
Honestly, I'm a little lazy to read through the Wikipedia page since it's sooooooo long... But, just a few days back, it was announced that Steve died of a respiratory arrest resulting from his cancer.
Now, I've skipped quite a whole lot to the bottom of the Wiki page and apparently the first CEO of Apple was a Gil Amelio... I have no idea who the heck he is.... And Steve took over his place in 1997, and now that he died last week, a Tim Cook takes over Steve's place...
Confusing? I don't really think so. If it's confusing then imagine the future generations if thy were to look at the predecessors before theirs, now THAT would be confusing... Well, that is if it's 100 years or more into the future, and if Apple survive that long (not that I don't have confidence in the company, and no hard feelings what-so-ever)...
So, to Steve, thank you for what you've contributed to us, to mankind in total. You are a smurfing great man and may you rest in peace.
And to the new CEO of Apple Inc., Tim Cook, I bet the world is looking forward to what new things you're going to bring forth for us. Good luck...
