He certainly drove the apple brand to the top, lets not forget that apple really started the windows type phenomenon, instead of dos based programmer language, only for Microsoft to leap ahead.
I can't fault apple gadgets particularly, they work, do exactly what they are meant to do ( and no more) I find he iPad great, I know people grumble about cost of things but hey you can buy a fully functional astro program for about 20 dollars and get free updates for life ( almost perhaps), a windows based product of similar nature will cost 100s.
No viruses either.
Visionary..... Maybee but he certainly hit the button for products, although smart phones are now made by everyone, tablets are being copied. If apple wants to stay ahead it needs new ideas, and let's face it before the iphone they weren't going anywhere.
As for Steve jobs, a cruel way to go, drop out at your peak to a horrible disease which is one of the most lethal varieties.
Like or loathe him, he certainly drove technology for he masses.... So where to next?
