    My wife and I toasted our MacBooks (as if they were champagne glasses, we didn't ACTUALLY toast them, that would be destructive).

    You said it. I'm looking around the living room at a room full of Apple products, thinking about a man whose ideas helped change how we communicate and how we live. He really was insanely great.

    Jobs belongs up there with Ford and Edison in terms of industrial and creative genius. Just about created the market for home computers by himself and kept innovating.

    RIP.

    Exactly, yet why does the health of the economy dependent on what these pigs do in their day-to-day trades based on following what I can only describe as mob behavior?

    Saw it in my newsfeed on Twitter first by IGN. Thought it was a joke. Mashable followed with the news. How sad.
