Steve Jobs, the co-founder of Apple, died yesterday. He was 56. The death was announced by Apple, the company Mr. Jobs and his high school friend Stephen Wozniak started in 1976 in a suburban California garage. The hard-driving executive pioneered the concept of the personal computer and of navigating them by clicking onscreen images with a mouse.
In more recent years, he introduced the iPod portable music player, the iPhone and the iPad tablet - all of which changed how we consume content in the digital age. Steve Jobs had battled cancer for years, took a medical leave from Apple in January and stepped down as CEO in August because he could 'no longer meet his duties and expectations.'
