Steve Jobs? My God! I don't like him, I hate these products, I will never buy one of them... Let me copy a post by someone other about him. This is also my thought. This is in three different languages: English, French, Romanian but with some web translator you should (almost?) understand everything, I guess :
This is a Twitter posts compilation for the most...My Tribute to Steve Jobs (1955-2011)
•^ I'm always sorry when someone dies, but otherwise I had little to no esteem for Steve Jobs. I won't miss him. Apple is a huge fraud.
•^ Visionary leader my ass. Mass manipulator and perpetrator of dishonest business practices, that's what he was.
•^ Folks, don't weep that much, it wasn't Joseph Stalin to die, it was only Steve Jobs! (I never owned an Apple product, and never will.)
•^ The difference between the religious fundamentalists and those who are mourning Steve Jobs today? None.
•^ A murit tătuca tehnologiei popoarelor, inventatorul apei calde şi a pâinii prăjite, Iosif Vissarionovici Jobs. Omenirea e răpusă de durere.
•^ Nu mă bucur de moartea unui om, dar mă înnebuneşte imbecilitatea de fanatici religioşi a celor care-l plâng în hohote. Sictir, bă.
•^ "Don't be trapped by dogma—which is living with the results of other people's thinking." Except that you MUST buy iPhone, iPad, MacBookAir.
•^ Steve Jobs est mort et oui, la Terre continue de tourner! (Vidberg) Un peu plus qu'un patron
•^ R.I.P. Steve Jobs
•^ Apple II my ass! W/o the IBM PC, there would be nothing, you hear me? Nothing.
•^ The mouse was *not* invented by Steve Jobs, but by Engelbart, Rider, Opocensky: Mouse (computing)
•^ It took Apple 20 years to put a right button on their mice, and their Magic Mouse still lacks a middle-button. That's visionary, Steve!
•^ Apple's insistence that a mouse should only have 1 button led to the highly unfortunate convention of double-clicking What Should The Middle Mouse Button Mean?
•^ Yes, I'm a h8er when comes to Apple (and also when comes to Google).
•^ USB connector, SDCard? Practically all the tablets are having them, but not the iPad2! That was visionary, Steve! Lots of morons are buying.
•^ After decades of Motorola and PowerPC, all Macs are using Intel CPUs. That was visionary, Steve! People can install Windows 7 on Macs.
•^ Which is the most criticized, anti-ergonomic file manager? You guessed it: Finder. Thank you, Steve Jobs.
•^ Now when people die in Apple factories, we can say they are doing their Jobs.
•^ Wrong. One-button is not innovation, but lack of features. Disintegrated chain not invented by Apple. Les trois i-génies de Steve Jobs
•^ Au-delà de ses produits léchés et fignolés, Steve Jobs aura surtout été le porte-étendard de ceux qui pratiquent obsolescence programmée des technologies pour que vous en consommiez encore plus! http://pierre-fraser.com/2011/10/06/le- ... teve-jobs/
•^ La tactilité n’a pas gagné une popularité justifiée grâce à l’iPod Touch (2007), mais grâce à la console Nintendo DS (2004), fabriquée également par Foxconn. Quant au téléphone portable à écran tactile, avant iPhone (2007), il y avaient : IBM Simon (annoncé en 1992, vendu en 1994), Motorola Accompli 008 (2002), Sony Ericsson P800 (2002). Pour les tablettes, avant l’iPad (2010), on pourrait mentionner HP TouchSmart tx2z (décembre 2008). Si aucun de ces produits n’a pas vraiment décollé, c’est que le budget de publicité d’Apple Inc. est imbattable…
•^ Failed Apple products: Rotten Apples: 10 Apple Products That Failed Also Top 10 Apple products which flopped Plus: everything NeXT.
•^ Faimosul român care-l linge în cur pe Steve Jobs şi după moarte. Steve Jobs didn’t
•^ Discursul de la Stanford a arătat că Steve Jobs era excelent la PR. Un priceput manipulator care văzuse deja moartea cu ochii. Ca om de afaceri însă, a practicat opusul a ceea ce predica: Apple a spălat pe creier masele, a creat o nouă religie şi o nouă monocultură. Cu excepţia OS X, care are rădăcinile în BSD, restul ecosistemului Apple nu te învaţă nimic, spre deosebire de ecosistemele MS-DOS/Windows şi Linux.
•^ No, really, is it anyone out there who actually *loves* iTunes? How about QuickTime?
•^ Sendero luminoso: someone is proud that Apple is the only IT company to have sold smth to his father Jobs has lighted our way Pathetic.
•^ "doing what you love, and never settling until you find it, is a costly signal of your career prospects" Did Steve Jobs give good advice?
•^ Apple's dead pixel policy is no better than anyone's else (may be even worse) HP TouchPad review Also: About LCD display pixel anomalies for Apple products released in 2010 and later
•^ Steve Jobs si lipsa de masura Steve Jobs și lipsa de măsură
•^ Stallman on Steve Jobs: "I’m glad he’s gone. We all deserve the end of Jobs’ malign influence on people’s computing." Richard Stallman on Steve Jobs: “I’m glad he’s gone”
•^ I never liked neither of RMS and Steve Jobs, but RMS went here a little too far. Richard Stallman on Steve Jobs: “I’m glad he’s gone”
•^ Un homme est décédé, paix à son âme et condoléances à ses proches. Steve Jobs, champion de l'enfumage marketing » La mort d'une icone
•^ Unlike Steve Jobs, Edison was “the world’s greatest inventor and the world’s worst businessman.” The Wizard and the Mortal: Two Sides of Genius

•^ NO MANUAL NECESSARY? On the contrary, when I see a unique button, and many apps lack a Back btn, I can't use that shit. NO MANUAL NECESSARY
•^ Moses, meet Steve : The Chronicle Herald: Editorial Cartoon (by Bruce MacKinnon)
•^ Touching, but I'll never use any Apple product. Ad-uri facute de agentii in onoarea lui Steve Jobs Ad-uri facute de agentii in onoarea lui Steve Jobs
•^ Îmi pare rău, când creezi Biserica Martorilor lui Apple, trebuie să trăieşti cu consecinţele faptelor tale şi după moarte!
