I'm sure everybody know by know, but yesterday, after struggling with cancer for years, at the age of 56(!) Steve Jobs passed away.
He was the person that made the iPods ubiquitous, and with them, the AAC format. http://www.apple.com/stevejobs/ I would surely miss him. RIP/QEPD. -------------------- MAREO: http://www.webearce.com.ar

I won't be a guy who will talk bad about Steve Jobs. After all his activity brings some interesting results.
But I'm agree that he was a 100% man of the business as it was already mention. Apple production is the result of concentration of many tech companies. It's hardly a breakthrough of one company, even less of one man. Let's see: 1. CPUs - A4-A5 - it's not other thing but ARM Cortex microprocessor. ARM are owners of its design and Samsung fabricates it. 2. Displays - LG. .... all hardware parts are made by different companies. Software isn't really new concept. Multimedia - AAC, H.264 etc - MPEG, ITU-T, Dolby, FhG and many others. Apple is smart to combine, invest and use modern technologies in intelligent way while the other companies who hold the rights of their technologies. And why does nobody talk about the death of Dennis Ritchie, true genius, the inventor of language C? His invention was way more important to modern tech world.
