Aw hell naw, I ain't trying to start rumors. But what if this is true?

I mean, I've seen with my own two eyes how people who started out hating Apple as well as Steve, suddenly taking a U-turn and respecting Apple, then buying an Apple product or two just to pay their respects to Steve.

What are your thoughts on this?

Well, the apple products are good & I think that for some confused people that were sitting on the fence and waiting for the right time to dip their feet into the apple-juice they will probably buy now.

I would expect to see a brief sales increase, it's a weird phenomenon that some people think they will gain some connection or feel some of the last of steve jobs spirit in the current devices that he had a hand in.

If apple can continue the momentum that steve jobs started then the companies balance sheets look only to increase and sales to go up.

Steve Jobs was a marketing man & a business man. Would I be surprised to see some steve jobs spin off items? Probably not.

Honestly I expect Apple to pick up the bat where Steve left off, put his death in the past and not dwell on it as I'm sure he himself would not want people or his company dwelling on his past. I suspect the next product launch may have a reference to Steve in it, but I sincerely doubt it.

They can never replace Steve, but they can and should try to emulate his methods as best he could because not only were the products he had a hand in great, but the company went from nearly dissapearing to one of the richest companies in the world. It would be a shame for his legacy to drop like a stone in the ocean.

How would trolls ever live without their funny windows vs apple debates?
