Steve Jobs, Rest in Peace

October 5, 2011

Shitty news today that Steve Jobs has passed on. I’ve used Apple products for over 25 years, from my family’s first computer – a newly released Apple //c that we purchased in the summer of 1984, followed by my “own” computer, a second-hand Apple IIe with the double floppy drive setup. A two-computer household in [...]
