Steve Jobs, the visionary in the black turtleneck who co-founded Apple in a Silicon Valley garage, built it into the world's leading tech company and led a mobile-computing revolution with wildly popular devices such as the iPhone, died Wednesday. He was 56. *Did this actually happen today, or is it a marketing ploy?*

Apple owes Steve Jobs $37.91

- Steve Jobs has yet to accept small amounts of money owed to him by several companies, including his own. Apple filed a claim with the state of California saying its CEO, Steven P. Jobs, hasn't claimed property worth $37.91, according to a listing with the state controller's office . The property type is listed as "other," and a spokesman for the controller declined to elaborate on what the item is because that information isn't public record. We're guessing it doesn't mean that Jobs forgot to claim his annual bonus. California law requires claims be posted for property "abandoned or lost" for more than three years. If the person doesn't claim it after six months, the property is transferred to the state, which then attempts to contact the owner, the spokesman said. The form was filed by Apple Computer Inc., which was the name of the Cupertino, California, company for about three decades before changing to Apple Inc. in 2007.
