No, Apple II was not my first personal computer, it was the Commodore 64.
No, iPod was not my first portable music player, it was a Aiwa portable tape player.
No, Macbook Pro was not my first laptop computer, it was a Toshiba Portégé.
No, iPhone was not my first smartphone, it was Dopod C730.
No, iPad was not my first tablet, it was Amazon Kindle.
And no, Steve Jobs was not my first idol, my dad is.
But just imagine the modern days without Jobs, Apple II, iPod, MacBook, iPhone and iPad. And imagine the days without mouse, GUI, touch screen gesture …
Remembering the man who behind all these, and who made “IT” stands for “Innovation, Transformation”.
“Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn’t matter to me … Going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful… that’s what matters to me.” – Steve Jobs
It’s also No No No to me. My ones were Atari, Sony, Olivetti, Nokia… I share your view about how he changed the use of technology over the last 30 years. He has passed away but the spirit will live. RIP Steve Jobs.

I think most of the people think his Stanford Commencement Speech was classic.
But don’t miss out his appearance at D8: http://allthingsd.com/video/?video_id=70F7CC1D-FFBF-4BE0-BFF1-08C300E31E11 in which he shared his view on iphone, ipad, privacy, app store…etc
