Damn I'm good

On the Internet, the adulation for Steve Jobs is so thick you need knee-high boots to wade through it. Personally, I've never cared much for the guy. From the start, I found the whole Apple cult thing off-putting (and a tad disturbing). Besides, I could never get pass his trademark smirk. "Damn I'm good," it seems to project. The thing is, he was damn good. And so, a tip of the hat: credit where credit is due. @placito (some self-important personality on Twitter) captured Jobs' historic importance perfectly with this line: " 'Why do people care so much about Steve Jobs resigning?' he said as he typed on a square of glass that contained all the music he ever owned." Exactly.
