I can't help but wonder what happens to Steve's other roles in other enterprises: Pixar, Disney, all the stock he controls in Apple and the others? Will his heirs assume the power he exercised? Obviously he will be replaced on Boards, but his degrees of ownership carry a lot of weight. Curious as to who will wield it. I know so little about his family it's hard to judge what if anything they may do in this regard. I would love it if one of his kids would rise to the surface and show distinct Steve-like markings.

I am sure he has left lot of money to Sanford University and for Cancer research and organ transplant research. As for as the children, does any one know how old they are? Any one capable to fit in his shoes ultimately?

I know a son recently graduated, from high school I think though it could have been college.
Another piece of unfinished business was that Jackling mansion thing. He finally got it torn down and was planning new home. I wonder if his wife will go forward with it.
So defensive -- not your usual trolling, you mean.
I only read a few paragraphs of the Times roundup of the usual handwringers.
What they, and of course you, fail to understand is that Apple's primary product is augmented intelligence. It is self correcting. There has never been such a business before, ever, in human history.
A comparison with Disney is inherently bogus. Disney was selling sugar water to kids. There was no visceral reason to stay honest to the original purpose, which was to entertain.
Stop trying to cause discord around here with your negative crap.

It truly is sad- Apple will never be the same. And this is not trolling.
