Steve Jobs has died....sad day.

I suppose it is sad but not sure in any way how it relates to Disney Theme Parks Attractions and Strategies...

I was just about to post this.

And before anyone cries OFF TOPIC, he did sit on the Board of Directors for Walt Disney Company after Disney acquired Pixar.


The world lost a visionary today. My thoughts are with his family and friends, and all of his peers at apple.

Well, he used to own Pixar, sat on Disney's Board, and owned about 7% of Disney

He also changed the world.

Just turned on my Mac. . .and the Apple Page came up with Steve Jobs' photo-----my stomach sank. I've been designing on a Mac since 1989. . . A great loss. . .a tremendous visionary. . .a very sad day.

None of that has nothing to do with theme park attractions or strategy.

Never once at the parks when debating riding a ride have I wondered how Steve was doing.

Do we post on here about deaths when anyone else who changed the world dies?

Yes, occasionally.


The fact that he had a strong Disney connection, and a LOT to do with several successful Disney makes this relevant.

And unless you've NEVER made an off-topic thread on any of the boards, you have no room to talk.

I'd hope you wouldn't. Unless all of a sudden I became a ride at WDW. Now if Steve Jobs was a flying elephant you'd have all the right to post.

Well the man tinkering on the computer in his garage on Spaceship Earth is rumored to be Steve Jobs, no?

R.I.P Steve Jobs!

& For anyone who doesn't know, Steve Jobs owned Pixar BEFORE Disney took it over in 2006. & He was also the largest shareholder of The Walt Disney Company & was on the Board of Directors.

Then I have all the room to talk. Why make off-topic threads? It defeats the purpose of categories for threads.

A man is dead, why the nasty remarks?

Pretty sure it's supposed to be Woz but either way Steve will be missed, he was a great man with a strong Disney legacy, and to cheapen that life and his memory with such arguments is insulting.

I thought there would be more people saying that.

RIP Steve Jobs.

And seriously pp...you can choose NOT to read any thread and you definately don't have to post in it just to complain about the post. Geez.
