Master inventor, master marketer: Steve Jobs, the Apple founder and former
CEO who invented and masterfully marketed ever-sleeker gadgets that
transformed everyday technology, from the personal computer to the iPod and
iPhone, has died. He was 56. Apple announced his death without giving a
specific cause.
Steve Jobs had no formal schooling in engineering, yet he's listed as the
inventor or co-inventor on more than 300 US patents. These are some of the
significant products that were created under his direction:

Apple I (1976): Apple's first product was a computer for hobbyists and
engineers, made in small numbers. Steve Wozniak designed it, while Jobs
orchestrated the funding and handled the marketing.

Apple II (1977): One of the first successful personal computers, the Apple
II was designed as a mass-market product rather than something for engineers
or enthusiasts. It was still largely Wozniak's design. Several upgrades for
the model followed, and the product line continued until 1993.

Lisa (1983): Jobs' visit to Xerox Corp.'s research center in Palo Alto
inspired him to start work on the first commercial computer with a graphical
user interface, with icons, windows and a cursor controlled by a mouse. It
was the foundation for today's computer interfaces, but the Lisa was too
expensive to be a commercial success.

Macintosh (1984): Like the Lisa, the Macintosh had a graphical user
interface. It was also cheaper and faster and had the backing of a large
advertising campaign behind it. People soon realized how useful the
graphical interface was for design. That led "desktop publishing,"
accomplished with a Mac coupled to a laser printer, to soon become a sales
driver.

NeXT computer (1989): After being forced out of Apple, Jobs started a
company that built a powerful workstation computer. The company was never
able to sell large numbers, but the computer was influential: The world's
first Web browser was created on one. Its software also lives on as the
basis for today's Macintosh and iPhone operating system.

iMac (1998): When Jobs returned to Apple in 1996, the company was
foundering, with an ever shrinking share of the PC market. The radical iMac
was the first step in reversing the slide. It was strikingly designed as a
bubble of blue plastic that enclosed both the monitor and the computer. Easy
to set up, it captured the imagination just as people across the world were
having their eyes opened to the benefits of the Internet and considering
getting their first home computer.

iPod (2001): It wasn't the first digital music player with a hard drive, but
it was the first successful one. Apple's expansion into portable electronics
has had vast ramifications. The iPod's success prepared the way for the
iTunes music store and the iPhone.

Tunes store (2003): Before the iTunes store, buying digital music was a
hassle, making piracy the more popular option. The store simplified the
process and brought together tracks from all the major labels. The store
became the largest music retailer in the US in 2008.

iPhone (2007): The iPhone did for the phone experience what the Macintosh
did for personal computing - it made the power of a smartphone easy to
harness. Apple is now the world's most profitable maker of phones, and the
influence of the iPhone is evident in all smartphones.
