In viewing the whole picture, I'm much less impressed the you seem to be.

Ralph,
No matter what your personal feelings might be about Mr. Jobs, he has been one of the most influential figures in the computer industry, and, with products like the iPod and iPad, has transformed the lives of millions. I am saddened that all you can find it within yourself to say about his death is "Does that now mean that there's a market for e-books now?" His life's achievements should mean more than that - even to you.
