The Legacy of Steve Jobs

Everyone is commenting on the death of Steve Jobs. Most people are commenting that he was a leading mind, a pioneer of the digital age, the man behind Apple and all of its weird gizmos. Me?

I thank Steve Jobs for Pixar. Without his financial support some of the best movies of the last decade would never have been made. New classics for adults and children to enjoy for years to come. The Mac, the iPod, iPad, iPhone, all of that is useful and will give way to new technology, but it is Pixar's legacy, helped along by Steve Jobs that will truly endure.

Except for Cars 2 apparently.

P.S.: Thanks to my lovely wife and blogger of Haley's Comic for correcting me on the appropriate way to de-capitalize the various iGizmos. Little eye. By the way, tag back Haley, tag back.
