RIP Steve Jobs




Today the world has lost one its best visioners. The man behind the Apple brand passed away this morning. Such an irony that Steve passed one after the latest iPhone 4S is introduced to the public. Later on after the news spread people comes with new terms for iPhone 4S = iPhone 4 Steve.

I was never a big fan of Apple product. As a matter of fact, up until now I only have 2 Apple products. I had the first gen of iPod Mini, I got it in 2005, and now its broken. After that I dont believe in Apple anymore, but last year I decided to give Apple another shot to become the part of my life. I bought a Macbook Pro 15" and believe me or not, this so-called-best-laptop-ever managed to changed my paradigm about computer into a new level. I came out with a conclusion that Apple computer is a computer created for people who can't use computer. Since then I became a big fan of their product. I was thinking of getting the new iPhone 4S as well. At first, I have doubt with the new iPhone, but after I saw the presentation and its features, I've made up my mind. I have to buy that phone. And I would consider that as a tribute to Mr. Steve Jobs and to honor his work.

I dont know you that well Mr. Jobs, I never even met you, but if I know you from your products. Your products speaks for itself of how you are trying to so hard to create technologies that understand human, and I thank you for that.

Good bye Steve! Rest in Peace, the world will never be like what it is right now if theres no Apple products around.

I'm going to close the post with two of my favorite Steve Jobs' quotes:

‎"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."

"Stay hungry, stay foolish"
