[Hidden-tech] RIP, Steve Jobs

[Tom Adams- Reelife Productions]

Nice to hear other folks' memories of Steve Jobs .. and I'd like to share my thanks to Jobs for turning this non-computery guy into a guy who really enjoys spending a lot of time on the computer.

I've made a living out of clicking and dragging, telling stories and making things look good...without really knowing how the heck it all works.

I am indeed very thankful for Jobs and the way he made it all... well,... fun.

Regards,

Tom Adams
