We are deeply saddened to announce that Steve Jobs passed away today.

Steve’s brilliance, passion and energy were the source of countless innovations that enrich and improve all of our lives. The world is immeasurably better because of Steve.

His greatest love was for his wife, Laurene, and his family. Our hearts go out to them and to all who were touched by his extraordinary gifts.


Steve Jobs has passed away

Apple - Remembering Steve Jobs


Bill Gates

I’m truly saddened to learn of Steve Jobs’ death. Melinda and I extend our sincere condolences to his family and friends, and to everyone Steve has touched through his work.


Steve and I first met nearly 30 years ago, and have been colleagues, competitors and friends over the course of more than half our lives.


The world rarely sees someone who has had the profound impact Steve has had, the effects of which will be felt for many generations to come.


For those of us lucky enough to get to work with him, it’s been an insanely great honor. I will miss Steve immensely.


Sergey Brin

From the earliest days of Google, whenever Larry and I sought inspiration for vision and leadership, we needed to look no farther than Cupertino. Steve, your passion for excellence is felt by anyone who has ever touched an Apple product (including the macbook I am writing this on right now). And I have witnessed it in person the few times we have met.

On behalf of all of us at Google and more broadly in technology, you will be missed very much. My condolences to family, friends, and colleagues at Apple.


Larry Page

I am very, very sad to hear the news about Steve. He was a great man with incredible achievements and amazing brilliance. He always seemed to be able to say in very few words what you actually should have been thinking before you thought it. His focus on the user experience above all else has always been an inspiration to me. He was very kind to reach out to me as I became CEO of Google and spend time offering his advice and knowledge even though he was not at all well. My thoughts are with his family and the whole Apple family.

Tim Cook to Apple employees

Team,

I have some very sad news to share with all of you. Steve passed away earlier today.

Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being. Those of us who have been fortunate enough to know and work with Steve have lost a dear friend and an inspiring mentor. Steve leaves behind a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple.

We are planning a celebration of Steve’s extraordinary life for Apple employees that will take place soon. If you would like to share your thoughts, memories and condolences in the interim, you can simply email [email protected]

No words can adequately express our sadness at Steve’s death or our gratitude for the opportunity to work with him. We will honor his memory by dedicating ourselves to continuing the work he loved so much.

Tim

Mark Zuckerberg

Steve, thank you for being a mentor and a friend. Thanks for showing that what you build can change the world. I will miss you.

Michael Dell

Today the world lost a visionary leader, the technology industry lost an iconic legend and I lost a friend and fellow founder. The legacy of Steve Jobs will be remembered for generations to come. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and to the Apple team.

Barack Obama

Michelle and I are saddened to learn of the passing of Steve Jobs. Steve was among the greatest of American innovators - brave enough to think differently, bold enough to believe he could change the world, and talented enough to do it.

By building one of the planet’s most successful companies from his garage, he exemplified the spirit of American ingenuity. By making computers personal and putting the internet in our pockets, he made the information revolution not only accessible, but intuitive and fun. And by turning his talents to storytelling, he has brought joy to millions of children and grownups alike. Steve was fond of saying that he lived every day like it was his last. Because he did, he transformed our lives, redefined entire industries, and achieved one of the rarest feats in human history: he changed the way each of us sees the world.

The world has lost a visionary. And there may be no greater tribute to Steve’s success than the fact that much of the world learned of his passing on a device he invented. Michelle and I send our thoughts and prayers to Steve’s wife Laurene, his family, and all those who loved him.

Despite being someone who has disliked Apple, he has earned a lot of respect from my side. He's one of the guys who revolutionized technology. He was legend. His passion and spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple. You will be missed.Rest In Peace, Steve Jobs.

the greatest thing about SJ was "He sold people on a product they didn't know they needed until he invented it". now how many can claim that "quality". it's a great loss to the world in terms of future technological innovations.

Sad indeed! May his soul rest in peace! I do remember reading a piece by Vic Gundotra of google, about how Steve called him one fine day to tell him he was not too happy with shades of color in word "Google" on Apple products. Spoke of his attention to detail. On a side note, aren't we losing too many good people of late? Shammi Kapoor, Tiger Pataudi........

very sad indeed. R.I.P Steve Jobs!

His story of coming back from the dumps to lead Apple is stuff of legends.

The constant innovation, the quality of apple's products under him, the vision for technology is unmatched.

Love or hate, he was the favorite of all the geeks...

Time Magazine has just released high quality cover photos of all their issues which featured Steve Jobs on the front. And they are going to feature him again in their next issue. They stopped their current issue and started working on an updated edition with just 3-4 hours time remaining.

News is never a 9 to 5 job.  Wednesday evening,... | Time
