Steve Jobs has left the Building

First, I'd like to saying thank you to Steve Jobs.

The Macintosh sparked my love for technology. I started on a Apple IIc in high school, then IIe & Quadra's in college (I taught a fellow student how to use a Mac- I later married her), it got me my first job using Quadra's and LCII's and III's, I got my first laptop in 1996 the 5300, my first PDA the Newton 110 (a gift from my boss Fred), basically I've used every Mac since then till today. I still have a Power Computing Power Tower Pro. It was an exciting era - the best was attending Macworld in San Francisco and Boston and even New York - the good old days.

The great thing is I still work with Macs, so does my wife and our two kids use them. And come to think of so do all of my neighbors. Not bad for a company that many had predicted to fail. It didn't because of Steve.
