Though I cannot consider myself electronic tech savvy, I do know that the genius man behind Apple Inc. was Steve Jobs. The Apple technology made mobile computing revolution a craze such as iphones and ipods.

The genius of this exceptional man cannot only be attributed to the innovative products that Apple produced. He was also the man who revived Apple which was at the brink of Chapter 11 during the early 1990′s.
Being a genius himself, he wasn’t a textbook CEO. In fact, it may not be known to everyone, but he was a real pain in the butt during his time at Apple. He got fired and was recalled to revive the then ailing company that he had co-founded.
“I didn’t see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.” - Steve Jobs’ Stanford Commencement Address
The Board knew all along that it was only Jobs who can do magic to Apple. Jobs understood what the lay man on the road wanted and wanted to hear. It’s because of his acumen that he was able to gather a larger market share for Apple products. That’s how they beat the competition in the field as there were many other products in the market then. Only Steve Jobs did the magic in making the product appealing to the public.
That’s where Steve Jobs is different from the rest. He was a man who’s willing to take risks and willing to be different.

With that charismatic appeal, he was able to lead Apple into new frontiers and the gap that he now leaves will be a testimony of his rare ability.
He finally took his resignation when he had fallen ill with pancreatic cancer.
Jobs will always be remembered for his innovation. With his passing, he left a lasting legacy that every man will remember.
May God rest his soul!
He is amazing! I am in awe of his brilliance and am fascinated with his life in general. His legacy will for sure live even if he’s physically gone. Someday, I hope to shake this person’s hand when all of these are over…. He deserves a congratulations for a job well done! He certainly had fought a good fight!

@RCEL:
Yes, Sis, he did a great job and amazingly so! Not too many people can get to accomplished what he did. When everybody wants to go with the flow, he wants to be different. He’s indeed quite a man.
