I voted for her simply becasue of that...
What a great mind, and I'm sure there would have been a hell of a lot more where all we know has come from had he lived. Lets hope some of that brain power of his was inherited by one of his children.
RIP Great gurú of the white apple.
R.I.P Steve Jobs
The only tribute that counts, regardless, is Woz's tears.

Rest in peace Steve Jobs and thank you for all you gave us.
