SoCalChris writes: I just heard some sad news on talk radio — Apple cofounder Steve Jobs was found dead in his Cupertino home this morning. There weren't any more details. I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will miss him — even if you didn't enjoy his work, there's no denying his contributions to popular culture. Truly an American icon.
