"RIP Steve Jobs. You touched an ugly world of technology and made it beautiful. You changed the world. Things won't be the same without you." —Matt Galligan (@mg)
We saw the news last night around 11pm, and read the New York Times article on our new MacBook Pro. Fitting.

Steve created some of my favorite things: aforementioned MacBook Pro, my previous model (6+ years and still trucking), our future first iPhones (we're getting them in a couple weeks, but I'm already predicting they make the list), and Pixar. It's hard to imagine what the world, our lives, would look like today without his influence on technology and design. Beautiful, simple, forward thinking.

In the words of Toy Story's Little Green Men, "We are eternally grateful."
