Fans continue to make the trek to the late Steve Jobs’ home in Palo Alto, California to pay their respects. The Apple co-founder’s silver Mercedes SL55 AMG is still sitting without a license plate outside the 5,768-square-foot home he lived in for many years.
According to The Los Angeles Times, admirers and tourists from around the world are still coming by to pay their respects:
“I wanted to see where the great man lived,” said Anna Bonaccorso, a 63-year-old from Brooklyn, N.Y. She paused furtively to snap a photograph of the house on a recent afternoon before trying to slip away unnoticed.

This makes me sad.
why? he rocked!! and continues to!!
Apple should create a permanent memorial to Steve for everyone to pay their respects at – Jony Ive could design it. That way everyone’s thoughts, memories and respects won’t be wiped away when this house is sold or the car moved.
Its Palo Alto, CA
also, the link to the LA Times article is botched.
Maybe they should build a permanent office for ” the founder” at every Apple location. Not a good idea…that’s called Scientology…where every location has a creepy office built for L Ron Hubbard! Bad Idea!
Weird. Don’t people have a life?
I experienced the same feeling – Sort of re-enforced the fact that he is no more.
Its amazing that most of us have not met Mr. Jobs, but many feel rather linked to him – This indeed very unique !
great loss to the world, and even more so to Apple, kinda happy that I bought one of the last steve jobs era macs after learning how involved steve got in the creation of the devices, not quite sure what direction tim cook is going to take apple, saying that shares hit $500 so he can’t be doing that bad
this is luscious steve jobs was a head of a company hes no saint or god and he didnt purely invent and of the apple device her oversaw the production tho but hes just a man and all men die
