I'm actually kinda glad he's dead. Maybe their products will fall to a reasonable price.
Steve had nothing to do with the prices you imbecile. The marketing departments handle the prices, as well, Apple products are high quality and polished (Well except for the fact that the iPhone still doesn't use Gorilla Glass, which is loving stupid) and they need to cover costs for parts. Just because you can't afford it doesn't mean the prices they're charging are wrong, seeing as how they can still sell millions of run of the mill laptops for over $2,000. Personally, I think the aesthetics alone are worth the price.
