I remember in the early days of Apple, he said in an interview that he wanted to put a computer into every home.

Mission accomplished, Steve.

Jbluntz - that is funny,

But yes, a true visionary - pity about the pancreatic cancer...knowing what I know about the disease, was only a matter of time.

I always wondered how he had it - it's usually related to a combo of heavy drinking + smokes - unless he had genetic predisposition - anyone know of his lifestyle? That bad?
