Boston Globe (October 7)
“Personal computers, smartphones, and digital music players might well exist if Steve Jobs had never begun tinkering in his parents’ California garage in the 1970s, but they wouldn’t have developed so rapidly, so beautifully, and with so much thought to their users. Without Jobs, who died of cancer at 56 Wednesday, the technologies we love would lack almost everything we love about them.”
