Last Friday (October 5) marks the first anniversary of the death of Steve Jobs.
It is unnecessary to write about how he shaped not only the home computer market but also the comsumer electronics market as well.
What is noteworthy however is that at the time of his death, Apple stock was trading at 389 a share and Fridays close saw it at 638. It had closed at over 700 dollars less than a month ago.
Jobs left Apple with a stable full of innovative products. Not only the iMAC and iBOOK personal computers but also the iPAD, iPOD and iPHONE. It appears that the company can still get some more milage out of these products.
It will be interesting to see what the future will bring for the world's most valuable company. Will there be another product in the pipeline that will capture the imaginations of people around the world or will the Apple mystique die with it's creator?
