Today, Apple issued a press release notifying the public that Steve Jobs has died after a long battle with pancreatic cancer, leaving many blogs like this one struggling for the appropriate words to express their shock and sadness. Although there was always an understanding — especially following Jobs’ sudden resignation as Apple CEO — that his prognosis might be negative, I avoided indulging in speculation and hoped for the best. Apple products have had at least a small part in my entire life. Instead of focusing on the sad news, this post will share some of my favorite memories of the company Steve Jobs founded. School Apple has always had a strong educational presence — even when the company was at its lowest point during the 1990s. The computer lab in my elementary school was outfitted with Apple ][ computers, and the middle school lab had all Macs. My most endearing Apple ][ memory is of my favorite game at the time, The Oregon Trail. We would play the game in groups, and like many kids at the time, we would name the family members after our friends. Since we typically had limited time to play, we would march across the trail as quickly as possible and almost invariably face disaster. When I reached middle school, gaming remained my favorite part of the compulsory computer class. The middle school computer lab was fully networked, and everyone’s favorite game was Bolo, a frantic tank game. In Bolo, your goal was to collect automatic turrets spread around the map and bring them back to your base to create an impenetrable fortress — but with the other team trying to do the same, the game invariably ended up as a non-stop — but incredibly fun — stalemate. Bolo could support something like 16 players simultaneously — pretty revolutionary during a time in which the closest any of us had ever come to multiplayer gaming was two-player Nintendo games and BBS door games. The End of Apple? Around 1996-97, a weekly newspaper periodical published a feature article that essentially functioned as an obituary for Apple, which many people at the time felt certain was near bankruptcy. I clipped the article, feeling as though I was witnessing the end of an era. Windows 95 had just come out and was a massive success, and Microsoft essentially owned the personal computer industry. During my childhood, there were plenty of computer platforms to choose from; IBM-compatibles, Apple/Macintosh, Commodore/Amiga, Atari ST and so on. By the 1990s, many of the competitors had faded away, leaving mostly IBM-compatible machines with Macs occupying a vast minority of the marketplace. Of course, we all know what happened after that; Apple purchased NeXT — bringing Steve Jobs back to the company — and formed a strategic partnership with Microsoft that proved beneficial for both companies. Today, it is hard to imagine there ever being a time in which it looked as though Apple was going to come to an end. This series of articles written by Robert X. Cringely (1, 2, 3, 4) in 1997 provide an interesting picture of what Apple looked like during those tumultuous times. The iMac Today, you can buy a PC in just about every size, shape and color that you can imagine. PC owners have Apple to thank for that; before the release of the iMac in 1998, PCs came in one color: beige. If you were very lucky, you might be able to find the model you wanted in black, but you’d probably still have a beige monitor, keyboard and mouse. Then, there was this translucent blue machine that turned everybody’s head. Suddenly, every PC owner wanted a machine as colorful as Apple’s little miracle. I remember my college roommate putting a poster of the iMac in our dorm room out of sheer admiration, even though both of us were still stuck with our old beige boxes. It wasn’t long, however, before PC users could build machines in varying colors of translucent plastic, clear Lucite, aluminum and more. I am dumbfounded to this day by the fact that it took so long for computer manufacturers to consider the possibility that a machine could perform well and look good. The Mac mini I remember watching Steve Jobs announce the Mac mini in early 2005 at Macworld and thinking that I just had to have one. As much as I had wanted to own a Mac following the release of the iMac in 1998, I was on a tight budget and it was always less expensive to build my own computer. Here, finally, was a Mac that I could buy for less than $500 — affordable enough to use as a secondary machine alongside my large tower computer. The original G4 Mac mini wasn’t exactly a speed demon. I bought the one with the slightly faster 1.42 GHz processor and upgraded the hard drive and RAM myself, and although it couldn’t compete with my Windows PC, I was amazed by the marvelous engineering of its internal components and the fact that it was just so darn easy to use. The Mac mini was my first modern Mac — the first I had used since the monochrome Macs that I used to play with in middle school. I adored OS X from the start — but, boy, did that machine ever hate websites with Flash elements. Goodbye, Steve For years, I watched nearly all of Steve Jobs’ keynote speeches that were streamed online. His presentation style was engaging, and Apple was releasing one exciting product after another; I couldn’t wait to see what the company would do next. I became fascinated by Apple’s business practices, and studied interviews to gain insight into Jobs’ leadership style. Although I never met Steve Jobs, I learned a great deal from him about what goes into a successful business and do my best to use what I have learned on a daily basis. I believe that Apple’s place in computers, electronics and media is secure and that the company still has years of growth and excitement to come. I am deeply saddened by the loss of Steve Jobs, but I know that every part of Apple contains a part of him because he worked for so many years to imbue every aspect of the company with his business philosophies. Goodbye, Steve. Thanks for making life a little better for so many people.

Listopada 5, 2011 Danas, Apple je izdao priopćenje obavještava javnost da je Steve Jobs je umro nakon duge borbe s rakom gušterače, ostavljajući mnoge blogove kao što je ovaj jedan se bori za odgovarajućim riječima izraziti svoje šok i tugu. Iako je uvijek razumijevanja — osobito sljedeće poslove’ Iznenadna ostavka kao Apple CEO — da je njegova prognoza mogla biti negativna, Izbjegavao sam indulging u špekulacije i nadali se najboljem. Apple proizvodi su imali barem jedan mali dio u cijelom mom životu. Umjesto da se fokusirate na tužne vijesti, ovaj post će podijeliti neke od mojih omiljenih uspomena tvrtke Steve Jobs osnivaju. Škola Apple je oduvijek imala jaku edukativnu prisutnost — čak i kada je tvrtka bila na najnižoj točki tijekom 1990-ih. Računalni laboratorij u mojoj osnovnoj školi bio opremljen Apple ][ računala, i srednje škole laboratorij imao sve Macove. Moj najsimpatičnijih Apple ][ Memorija je od mojih omiljenih igri na vrijeme, Oregon Trail. Želimo igrati u skupinama, i poput mnogih djecu na vrijeme, bismo imenovati članove obitelji, nakon naših prijatelja. Budući da smo obično imali ograničeno vrijeme za igru, bismo marširati preko staze što je brže moguće, a gotovo uvijek suočavaju katastrofu. Kad sam stigao srednju školu, gaming ostao moj omiljeni dio obveznog računala klasi. Srednje škole računalni laboratorij bio potpuno umrežen, i svačija omiljena igra bila To je, ljut tenk igra. U njega, Vaš cilj je prikupiti automatskim turrets proširila po karti i dovesti ih natrag u svoju bazu za stvaranje tvrđave neprobojan — ali s druge ekipe pokušavaju da učine isto, Igra uvijek zavrsilo kao non-stop — ali nevjerojatno zabavan — pat. Bolo bi mogao podržati nešto poput 16 igrača istovremeno — prilično revolucionarni tijekom vremena u kojem najbliži bilo tko od nas ikada doći u modu je dva-player igre Nintendo i BBS vrata igara. Kraj Apple? Oko 1996-97, tjednik periodično objavljuje značajka članak koji zapravo funkcionira kao osmrtnica za Apple, što mnogi ljudi u to vrijeme bio siguran je blizu bankrota. Ja izrezao članak, osjećaj kao da sam bio svjedok kraj jedne ere. Windows 95 upravo izašli i bio je veliki uspjeh, i Microsoft biti u vlasništvu osobnih računala industriju. Tijekom mog djetinjstva, bilo je dosta računalnih platformi za izabrati iz; IBM-kompatibilno, Apple / Macintosh, Commodore / Amiga, Atari ST i tako dalje. Do 1990-ih, mnogi od natjecatelja iščezla, ostavljajući govore IBM-kompatibilne strojeve s Macove zauzimaju ogromnu manjinu tržištu. Naravno, Svi znamo što se dogodilo nakon toga; Apple kupio Sljedeća — donoseći Steve Jobs vratio u tvrtku — i sklopili su strateško partnerstvo s Microsoftom koji se pokazao korisnim za obje tvrtke. Danas, Teško je zamisliti da je ikad bio put u kojem je izgledala kao da je Apple će doći do kraja. Ova serija članaka napisao Robert X. Cringely (1, 2, 3, 4) u 1997 daju zanimljivu sliku onoga što Apple je izgledalo kao u tim burnim vremenima. IMac Danas, možete kupiti računalo u gotovo svim veličini, oblika i boja koje možete zamisliti. PC vlasnici imaju Apple zahvaliti za to; Prije izlaska na iMac u 1998, Računala je došao u jednoj boji: bež. Ako ste bili jako sretni, što bi moglo biti u mogućnosti pronaći model koji ste htjeli u crno, ali ti bi vjerojatno još uvijek imaju bež monitor, tipkovnica i miš. Onda, Tu je ovaj prozirni plavi stroj koji se pretvorio svatko je head. Iznenada, svaki vlasnik PC htjela stroj kao šarene kao Appleov malo čudo. Sjećam se moj koledž cimer stavljajući poster iMac u našoj sobi u studentskom domu iz čiste divljenja, iako obojica su još uvijek u škripcu s našim starim bež kutije. Nedugo, međutim, Prije PC korisnici mogli graditi strojeve u različitim bojama prozirne plastike, clear Lucite, aluminija i više. Ja sam zapanjen i danas zbog činjenice da je trebalo tako dugo za proizvođače računala da razmotri mogućnost da se stroj može obaviti i a izgleda dobro. Mac mini Sjećam se da sam gledajući Steve Jobs objaviti Mac mini početkom 2005 na Macworld i razmišljanja da sam jednostavno morao imati jedan. Koliko god sam htjela da posjedujete Mac nakon objavljivanja iMac u 1998, Bio sam na uskoj proračuna, a to je uvijek jeftinije izgraditi svoje računalo. Ovdje, napokon, Bio Mac da sam mogao kupiti za manje od $500 — dovoljno pristupačne koristiti kao sekundarni stroj uz moju veliku toranj računalu. Izvorni G4 Mac Mini nije bio baš brzina demon. Kupio sam onu s malo brže 1.42 GHz procesor i nadograditi tvrdi disk i RAM sebe, i iako se ne mogu natjecati sa mojim Windows PC, Bio sam zadivljen prekrasnom inženjering svojih unutarnjih komponenti i činjenicu da je to samo tako prokleto jednostavan za korištenje. Mac mini je bio moj prvi moderni Mac — Prvi je sam jer su crno-bijele Macove koje sam igrati s u srednjoj školi. Ja obožavan OS X od početka — ali, dječak, jeste da je stroj uvijek mrze web stranice s Flash elemenata. Zbogom, Steve Godinama, Gledao sam skoro sve Steve Jobs’ keynote govora da su streamed online. Njegovo izlaganje stil je zanimljiv, a Apple je u objavljivanju jedan uzbudljiv proizvod za drugom; Ja ne mogu čekati da vidite što tvrtka će učiniti sljedeći. Postao sam fasciniran Appleove poslovne prakse, a studirao intervjue dobiti uvid u Posao’ stil vođenja. Iako nikada nisam upoznao Stevea Jobsa, Naučio sam mnogo od njega o tome što ide u uspješnom poslovanju i to mi je najbolje koristiti ono što sam naučio na dnevnoj bazi. Vjerujem da je Appleov mjesto u računalima, Elektronika i medija je siguran i da tvrtka još uvijek ima godina rasta i uzbuđenja doći. Duboko sam ožalošćen gubitkom Steve Jobs, ali znam da je svaki dio Apple sadrži dio njega, jer je on radio za toliko godina da se prožimaju svaki aspekt društva sa svojim poslovnim filozofijama. Zbogom, Steve. Hvala što život malo bolje za toliko ljudi.
