Steve Jobs, co-founder of Apple Computer, died one week ago today at age 56.  He left us too young, a victim of a rare form of pancreatic cancer and the complications from its treatment over the last seven years.  Those in the Mac user community have been hard hit by the news, and people all around the world have found creative ways to express their sense of loss.  Outside Apple Retail Stores everywhere, people have set up makeshift shrines to the late visionary, complete with votive candles, small technological displays, flowers, cards, and sticky notes.  When any community loses someone it perceives as central to its cohesiveness, it can be consoling to find ways to come together and share in mourning.  How are Apple fans handling the news of Steve Jobs’ death?

In answer to that question, we take you to this special coverage from Brian Tong of Cnet, host of The Apple Byte.  A true Mac lover, Tong’s special report helps bring the community together by showing ways in which people have joined forces to celebrate the life of Steve Jobs, and to let him go.
