Has anyone defined a company as much as he did/does? And this is figuring in his long hiatus from the company. Jobs = Apple in so many people's eyes. Will be interesting to watch, even if he stays on as chairman, whatever that means. Hope he will be with us a lot longer in any capacity.

Nobody will ever be able to give presentations like him. Starting right from that famous 1984 intro of the Macintosh at MacWorld.

As long as I have liked Apple, I never bothered to watch even one presentation with Jobs. I had heard what stellar presentations he gave. I finally watched one a few years back (the only one I ever watched) and was surprised to find out what a high voice he had. I expected something more commanding and baritone. All that proves of course, is that he didn't need that to be a stellar presenter. Of course, it helped that he had stellar, carefully guarded products to debut.

He has had a profound effect on me. Used his computers back in '77

He and, more to the point, his products have had a profound effect on my life, that's for sure.

It's going to be interesting to see how history treats him. Nobody, in any industry, has had near the amount of effect on how we live as he has.
