Edit: Aaand downvotes proving my point. Thanks.
(I don't get how down voting proves your point).
Watching all this stuff about Jobs also makes asking questions like yours. Did Jobs change the world? Did he help the poor and the sick? Which achievements do matter in life?
The celebrating of Jobs life has a lot in common with the celebration of some religious leaders. It shows that people need a leader, some guidance. Some people just pick a leader for his charisma, not his wisdom.
I'm not sure how the downvotes prove your point. Your post was poorly worded, lacking support and derogatory.
For fucks sake, why don't we get rid of those anti-Apple (slowpoke) and anti-Google (chugger) types? This is getting ridiculous...
