Jobless Apple


I disagree with Apple over its market dominance in many ways than one (or should I say “iDisagree”). Never-the-less Apple had one of the most brilliant minds born to this century; Steve Jobs.
It was announced today that Mr. Jobs is resigning. Can Apple Inc. survive without Steve? That is the question.
Whenever Steve walked onto a stage, he revolutionizes “Gadgets”. Whether it’s the introduction of the iPod (which revolutionized the MP3 player) to the introduction of the iPad (which revolutionized the Tablet PC), he always maintained the charisma of an unstoppable inventor; a thinker like no one else.
I cannot see a Computer Industry without Steve. He’s the one who popularized the iPhone, leading the way to a new dawn of Smartphones.  He’s the guy who turned Geeks/Nerds into super cool hippies. He’s the one who changed the way girls thought of the boys; “Smart is the new sexy”. As a Geek/Nerd, you have my gratitude Mr. Jobs. Sure, I love Android, sure I love Nokia, sure I love Asus… but you got to hand it over to Steve Jobs, the guy’s got style.
Steve Jobs is an icon (Or should I say… an iCon). But when he said “I Quit” (Yes, yes. I know, I know… he said “iQuit”) Apple just got bitten hard (pun intended).
Let’s see Apple, let’s see what you’ve got up your sleeve. Apple without Steve is like a… Ooh, I can’t tell it here can I? You guys guess!
