Headline news.

I wonder if they got hacked... no attached story, seems odd

Well... or maybe not

Fox News has picked it up

On the local news now

seems the announcement is confirmed - Jobs has had pancreatic cancer for awhile.

This is really sad. He was one of the great leaders of business, and technical innovation. Say what you will about the products he made and the crazes he created, but he was innovative, brilliant, and charismatic. Apple would not have survived without him, and computers the way we use them today would not be the same without the contributions he made.

I'm a little sad right now

Very sad. Although I am not a fan of Apple, I agree that he made many significant contributions to technology.

RIP

Sad but not unexpected. He brought a unique perspective to computer design.

Changed the world. Literally.
