The Apple of our I

Well, there's another guy who just died. You probably know who he is. Steve Jobs passed away yesterday.

In 1974, Jobs took a job as a technician at Atari, Inc. in Los Gatos, California. He traveled to India in the summer of 1974 to visit Neem Karoli Baba at his Kainchi Ashram with a Reed College friend (and, later, an early Apple employee), Daniel Kottke, in search of spiritual enlightenment. However, when they got to the Neem Karoli ashram it was basically deserted after Neem Karoli had died earlier in the year. Then they made a long trek up a huge dry riverbed to an ashram of Hariakhan Baba. In India, they spent a lot of time on endless bus rides from Delhi to Uttar Pradesh and back, then up to Himachal Pradesh and back.

In 1976, Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne founded Apple

The following year, Apple aired a Super Bowl television commercial titled "1984". At Apple's annual shareholders meeting on January 24, 1984, an emotional Jobs introduced the Macintosh to a wildly enthusiastic audience

In 2007, the iPhone and the iPod touch came out. In 2010 the iPad.

On August 24, 2011, he resigned from Apple.

Here is what apple said:

We are deeply saddened to announce that Steve Jobs passed away today. Steve's brilliance, passion and energy were the source of countless innovations that enrich and improve all of our lives. The world is immeasurably better because of Steve.

Personally, he will be missed by me. I owe him a huge debt of gratitude for the gadgets we have today. If it weren't for him, we might not have them. R.I.P. Steve
