Given that Oolite started out as a Mac project, I think an Apple addition to the TOGY would be nice.

Maybe with this printed on it:

You mean this?

I just added your picture as illumination map on top of the headstones. Illumination only works good for the grey stones, not for the already black ones.

It's almost perfect (white marble would be perfect).

A more than suitable memorial. Nice one.

That's lovely - Eric - ideal in fact. (Although in true Apple fashion - the stone should be white)

I now put it in a small oxp (16 kb) that can be installed alongside the main pxp: i.m. Steve Jobs. Selezen than can add it to the main pack if he wishes.

I just was recalling my first contact with Apple. That was with a training period for my study at the KEMA (a leading Dutch electric testing facility). That was in august/september 1981. So, my first contact with apple was exactly 30 years ago. It must have been one of the early Apple II models. It was used to control a mass spectrometer, a heating chamber were a chemical reaction took place and the gas composition that went into the heating chamber. In the morning I programmed the Apple and than it ran for several hours unattended while it stored a composition sample every few minutes. Also my second contact with apple computers at our own university was the use as intelligent interface with technical equipment.
After that I never stopped using Apple computers and later on Macintosh computers. So, Steve Jobs had a big influence on my experience with computers.

Posted my thoughts on my blog. I'm not a huge fan of Apple, but Steve Jobs was a remarkable person and 56 is far to little time on this little world.

Cheers,

Drew.
