Steve Jobs Dead at 56; How Did He Change Your World?

On my first day as a Patch editor, I sat in a room of other journalists using Apple computers. To find the location of my New York City training session, I had punched the address into my iPhone.

Whether or not you were a fan of the brand he molded, Apple co-founder and former CEO Steve Jobs made a huge impact on the way our society uses computers. And now he's gone.

Jobs, 56, died Wednesday, Apple announced in a brief statement.

Apple's products are so ubiquitous now that it's almost hard to imagine a world without them. Walk down a busy street and the white earbuds are everywhere. Not everyone will think that's a good thing, but it's not likely to change any time soon.

Roseville, how did Steve Jobs and Apple change the way you interact with technology and your world? Did the iPod change the way you listen to music? Are you a longtime user of Apple computers? What was your first Apple product?
