When I saw Pirates of Silicon Valley years ago, it gave me a whole new perspective on Steve and Bill (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEyrivrjAuU). They are mad geniuses. It's sad to lose one of them. I never thought I'd see the day I would be sad over the death of a billionaire. Maybe because he was more than that, he was a modern day inventor. To me, he's up there with Thomas Edison. I'm glad to say I got to witness a great inventor. Although, if there's anything I learned from the movie, he wasn't an inventor, he was a perfectionist. He perfected other people's ideas.
