I have had the honor of working at Apple twice in my career. Saw the man on campus several times, and shared a brief (and quiet) elevator ride with him.

He took a company that fired him, a company bereft of a vision or plan, and in just 15 years revolutionized personal technology, how we listen to music, how we share our lives with each other.

And in the process brought Apple from bankruptcy to having more cash than THE FEDERAL RESERVE.

Well done, Mr. Jobs, and godspeed to you and your family.

Hmm... now I gotta find a tartan with six colors...
