2011 In Tech: A Year Of Great Losses

I don't know much about A. Sachs, save for this one, memorable quotation attributed to the man: "Death is more universal than life; everyone dies but not everyone lives". Indeed, the percentage of people essentially living on borrowed time is carved in stone (a hundred percent) while it's anyone guess what the percentage of people on the planet is who are 'truly living' - and even then everyone has their own definition as to what that constitutes. As we approach the end of 2011, at least according to the Gregorian calendar, I thought it would be good to take some time to commemorate some people who've passed away this year, but have lived enough to make an impact on the tech industry - and more broadly, the world - before they did.
