OPENING ACTIVITY 10/6

I can't believe Steve Jobs died so young, 56 in this day and age is pretty young to pass away.  Cancer has now taken another talented person.  Steve Jobs is up there with Bill Gates both fathering personal computers.  We will all remember his contributions and what he did with Apple, without him none of us would have Ipods or anything Apple relating.
