"Probably I will just turn up the volume of it. Because, the last few years have reminded me that life is fragile".
Steve Jobs (1955 - 2011) Co-Founder of Apple Inc (56 years)
It was in the morning of 6 Oct 11, I received a news notification on my iPhone that "Apple's co-founder, Steve Jobs died. One of the greatest person ever lived in our time has passed away peacefully following a long battle with cancer. He died on Wednesday, 5 Oct 11.
The visionary that changed lives by introducing portability with style. In 1976, he started off with his best buddy, Steve Wozniak in a garage. He has transformed that garage into Apple, the most valuable company next to Exxon Mobil.
He was ousted from the Apple Inc's board in 1985. Apple's business declined tremendously since.
It was only until his return in 1997 as CEO brings Apple to a new height that many would not have imagined to be possible at all.
"Today, Apple is going to reinvent... the phone". The exact words he said during the release of Apple iPhone. A smartphone so powerful that changed the lives of many. Bringing convenience and technological brilliance to a level that no one could even imagined. Since iPhone, it was the iPad. "And we called it, the iPad". A tablet PC no one thought would be so widely used and popular.
