On October 05, Steve Jobs, Apple Co-founder and former CEO passed away at the aged 56. Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being. Here are the Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer reactions to Steve Jobs death:

Bill Gates

“I’m truly saddened to learn of Steve Jobs’ death. Melinda and I extend our sincere condolences to his family and friends, and to everyone Steve has touched through his work.
Steve and I first met nearly 30 years ago, and have been colleagues, competitors and friends over the course of more than half our lives. The world rarely sees someone who has had the profound impact Steve has had, the effects of which will be felt for many generations to come.
For those of us lucky enough to get to work with him, it’s been an insanely great honor. I will miss Steve immensely.”

Steve Ballmer
