Makes 2 of us :sad1:

RIP and I feel sorry for his family as 56 isn't old. I wonder if he knew it was coming and that's why he resigned?

Do you really think, in a thread mourning the loss of a human being and someone who has changed a lot of our lives unmeasurably, a stock price prediction is relevant?

Bad taste imo.

Stock price in this case is a reflection of how important Jobs was the company.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

It's fitting that lots of people will find this out through an Apple device.

RIP
GTI going...

He was absolute Legend. You could say that the person who he was actually defines the term 'Legend'.

All of us who enjoy using Apple products have him to thank for that enjoyment. He changed lives - For the better.

I think I'm about to shed a gentle tear.

Maybe, but it's still a pretty crass statement in my view, somewhat lacking in sensitivity!
