Steve Jobs gets honored with a Virgin America airliner
Share:
The airline company has adorned the quote, “Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish” on the fuselage of an Airbus A320 as a tribute to the late Steve Jobs. Abby Lunardini, a spokesperson for Virgin, said that an employee participating in an internal plane naming competition suggested the tribute idea and the accompanying quote.
Virgin feels that it is similar to Jobs in the fact that it has been a leader in bringing technology to flight, particularly in the form on its onboard Wi-Fi.
"The idea behind Virgin America was to reinvent the travel experience by thinking differently about design and service--we are known for the tech-forward amenities we offer onboard," Lunardini said.

I am so SICK of everybody and everything putting Steve Jobs on this enormously high pedestal. Dennis Ritchie, look that name up and tell me who should have been honored more.

Steve Jobs. Dennis Ritchie may be a name that those in technology circles may know, but Steve Jobs' contribution to the democratization and advancement of technology goes beyond anything that Ritchie did.

Whatever, given Jobs did contribute alot to technology, Ritchie developed the C programming language and the Unix OS which is used in pretty much EVERYTHING.
