I am rather fortunate to have grown up in the hacker era. To have heard of Steve and Woz before they became household names. The lights are going out. A lot of us were reaching for the brass ring Steve captured. Way to go guy. And lucky (and very good) you. You will be missed.
Now about that new processor I’m working on.

We lost another of the greats. (That said despite the fact that I’m PC all the way – hardware-wise.) Hope there are replacements in the wings somewhere. Haven’t seen much evidence of that in other fields but, I keep hoping.

Wow, what a self-serving obituary. Translation: Jobs got lucky; it could have just as well be me, and check out how great I am at this link.
Mark,
I was trying to give a feel for a certain place and time. I’m sorry you didn’t get it.
And I’m also sorry that you didn’t get: the work will go on.
