This post is very true. He wasn't great enough to 'worship' him like some people do. He was a human, like everyone, unless he was your personal family I don't see the point.
Thank you.
You know what bothers me even more? Sure you could like the guy because he made some cool stuff you wanted to buy.
But when he died? All the displays at Apple stores? Really? Thats disrepectful in my book.
To most people, Steve Jobs was an idea, he represented the idea of Apple, much like Bill Gates represented the idea of Microsoft.
But here's the thing, 99.99999% of these people never met Steve Jobs, they knew next to nothing about him, then they take it personally when he dies. Sure its sad, but you never knew the guy, you never got to know him. And you didn't know what he was like, nor did he really mean anything to you, nor did you mean anything to him personally.
Apple has the best marketing team in the world, thats for sure.
