Steve Jobs has died. What effect, if any, will it have on Apple and the tech industry?

The way you write makes me believe you're lying about being a developer.

Oh, let me guess you're just choosing to write like that, but when you code, it's immaculate, right?

im a coder. i write **** like this:

Code:
    private static final String TAG = "TabActivity";
    private TabHost mTabHost;
    private String[] tabNames;
    private boolean p2p;

    private Intent mIntent;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.tabs_layout);
        mIntent = getIntent();
        intialiseTabs();
    }

    public void switchTab(int tab) {
        mTabHost.setCurrentTab(tab);
        mTabHost.setSelected(true);
        mTabHost.invalidate();
    }

 /**
     * Creates the activity intent and puts it into the tab host.
     * 
     * @param tabName Tab name to display.
     * @param className Class to load in the tab.
     * @param icon Tab icon to display.
     */
    @SuppressWarnings("rawtypes")
    private void addTab(final String tabName, Class activity, int icon) {
        Intent activityIntent = new Intent(this, activity);
        if (activity.equals(CardsTabGroupActivity.class)) {
            activityIntent.putExtra(INTENT_EXTRA_P2P, p2p);
        } else if (activity.equals(SettingsTabGroupActivity.class)) {
            activityIntent.putExtra(INTENT_EXTRA_SCREEN, mIntent.getIntExtra(INTENT_EXTRA_SCREEN, 0));
        }
        TabHost.TabSpec spec = mTabHost.newTabSpec(tabName);
        spec.setIndicator(getTabView(tabName, icon));
        spec.setContent(activityIntent);
        mTabHost.addTab(spec);

    }

Continue to be in deniel why i continue to code away during my day job earning decent salary :)
 
Deary me people

I've had an iPhone, Android phone, Windows mobile phone...I'm not biased towards apple, neither do I love or hate them...Same with any other brand really.

I see the plus side to apple, and the negatives. My colleague on the other hand absoloutely HATES Apple...Infact, he hates them so much that at lunch time he swore blind that you had to download a 'scientific' keyboard to get the extra keyboard characters...Queue someone else with an iphone go, actually, you just turn the phone on its side :o

Bless him.

I've currently got a San Fran, purely due to costs, it works, however it is cheap so the software struggles a bit. I also have an iphone for work (3gs) and I do like it, if I had the money I'd probably get an Iphone 4.

Anyway i'll get back on topic, APPLE SUCK111
 
Jesus christ can a mod just close the thread. It's not even a slanging match between apple and android.
 
It is funny how these threads (i.e. mention Apple) devolve into a mud slinging match.....I personally dislike Apple stuff, i feel its overpriced, restrictive...but mostly its the general assumption of people that its the best because it has that little apple on it that really annoys me.....

But at the end of the day who really cares? Its up to you if you want to buy an Apple product.

On the original subject of the thread, I think any claim that Steve Jobs is solely responsible for Apples success and for Pixar studios earlier success is probably quite insulting for all of the Apple/ Pixar workers who put in so much effort to get the companies where they are....no one denies he obviously knew what he was doing...but at the end of the day the only effect his passing will have on Apple is solely down to public perception...as a earlier post said ...share prices drop because people believe Jobs was the golden goose.
