Jobs was first to realise that the original iPad was far too big
Amid emotional tributes to Apple genius Steve Jobs, millions of customers said it would probably be okay for the company to go ahead and install the video playing software because Jobs would never know.
The Apple founder was always vehemently opposed to using Flash on mobile devices, claiming it was unstable, though rumours persist the two companies actually fell out over a woman.
Technology analyst Julian Cook said: "We have lost a great man. An innovator and a visionary who changed the world and stopped me watching videos on this thing I paid more than four hundred quid for.
"That said, I have had my iPad for nearly a year now and every time I use it I still think, 'fuck me, this thing is amazing'.
"I doubt there is another person in history who has provoked as many 'fuck me-s' as Steve Jobs. From the iMac to the iPod and iPhone, to Toy Story, Wall-E and Up, it's just one 'fuck me, how are they doing this?' after another."
Cook added: "His legacy will mean the company continues to grow and innovate, though I suspect many people will now find it easier to complain to Apple because Steve Jobs always looked like he might shout at you."
Meanwhile many Apple devotees are relaxed about Jobs' death, insisting he will rise again, probably on Sunday afternoon.
Tom Logan, who never doubted or denied Jobs, said: "He will then be taken up, at which point we, as disciples, would ordinarily go forth and take over the world. However Steve had already taken care of all that. Somewhat comprehensively.
"He actually makes Jesus look a bit 'meh'."
