Ten years ago today, Apple cofounder Steve Jobs died. The tech visionary was 56.

I went to the same high school in California: Wozniak graduated 1970, I graduated 1971, and Jobs graduated 1972. I never met the guy, but I remember seeing guys walking around with huge stacks of Hollerith cards (aka IBM cards) that they used for each line of batch code programming at the local jr college.
