My husband and I learned about it while we were out...attempting to have a romantic night... totally killed it (well it did! Not gonna lie about that.). My husband pretty much idolized Steve Jobs so he was almost in actual tears (almost). It was such a surprise blow that we doubted it for a few minutes. Thought someone was being a real bad troll. But, the guy has been battling cancer, and then he stepped down as CEO so I believe when he did that it was a sign that it was rearing it's ugly head again. Sadly, this time he lost.
We hope that the company constantly pauses to have a "What would Steve do?" conversation before pushing out a new product. That guy, man, he was something brilliant. Knew what he was doing.
I'm also pretty sure Mr. Jobs is barking at us from iHeaven to stop crying about it and move on. Seems like the kind of guy to say that.
