October 24, 201114 yr Apple has posted the company wide celebration of Steve Jobs life held Oct 19th at Apple HQ. Its a bit long but really beautiful and for me well worth the time. It even brought a few tears to my eyes and I don't even know why Click Here to watch it.
October 24, 201114 yr Also 60 Minutes had a great show about Steve Jobs and interviewed the author of his biography that comes out today. You can watch it here: http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-18560_162-20124391/steve-jobs-revelations-from-a-tech-giant
October 25, 201114 yr Active Members I have read both of the biographies by Walter Isaacson of Benjamin Franklin and Albert Einstein. I thought them very good and I enjoyed them but they reminded me of a term paper. There was redundancy and all too many listed references. I consider many of those not necessary in a "modern" account of long dead illuminaries. Therefore I view his biography of Steve Jobs with a little caution. Not that I think he is insincere or covering up "negative" items, just that he might be a little too close to the subject and perhaps treating the subject all too "academically", so to speak. I have not read the book. After and when I do, I shall report on my feelings then, if anyone cares. In the meantime, let us just cruise along with our personal thoughts about life in general and deal with life as it exists and we know it today. Best regards, RA1
