Gosh, 56, it's no age and to leave a wife and kids behind too.

legend in his own lunchtime

very young but achieved so much

RIP Steve

Wow, I knew he was very ill, but was still shocked when I saw this on the BBC site. R.I.P.

Not so sure Guy, 7 years with pancreatic cancer is almost unheard of. That is an awesome achievement and his part against the most deadly cancer of them all.

A fantastic all rounder, business, technical, design and a down to earth chap.

RIP that man

Too true. Swayze lasted less than 2 years, which is more the norm.

RIP to one of the greatest brains in computer history.

And stayed at the helm right up to August - showed his work ethic

tremendous loss to the world. Let's hope his death inspires others to take on some of what he worked for.

No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life’s change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

Very sad. I've never been an Apple computer user, but we're an iPhone household and use them every single day. RIP Steve.

A sad day for the tech industry. R.I.P. Steve

Whilst I was never the biggest fan of his products his vision and drive influenced the tech industry immensely he'll be missed RIP Mr Jobs.

 

[Blossom]

He was such an inspiration - proof that one person can change the world forever.

He was such an inspiration - proof that one person can change the world forever.

Plus one person with a so-called crap deal of a start in life. Being an orphan and college drop out, his attitude of "can do" should be seen as proof by many.

Steve Jobs was a true Inspiration

Steve Jobs was a true Inspiration to many, such a loss to technology and his family.

My thoughts are with his family and friends, I agree with others comments, 7 years with one of the most aggressive cancers is a sign of his will and strength.

 

[StudioVision]

A truly sad day. RIP Steve.
