One month after stepping down as chief executive, Apple co-founder Steve Jobs died on Wednesday of pancreatic cancer. He was 56 years old.
Apple, on its website, posted the following statement:
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.
