Dear Steve, Thank you.

Dear Steve,

Thank you.

Thank you for giving a geeky kid a way to express himself programing an Apple ][ in his 5th grade class in Applesoft BASIC.

Thank you for seeding an entrepreneurial spirit with desktop publishing software so I could create greeting cards for classmates.

Thank you for making technology easy enough for kids so I could get a job at the college computer lab, then intern at a company, then write my own educational software – all while in high school.

Thank you the Apple Developer program which allowed me to purchase my first Macintosh SE.

Thank you for the rebirth of Apple and re-introducing me to Apple with iPod.

Thank you for the tools to create music videos of my children each year for Mother’s Day which make my wife cry with joy.

Thank you for creating a world where my children assume technology has always been easy to use and enabling new ways they can express themselves.

Thank you.
