連說3次「oh Wow」賈伯斯臨終遺言
〔編譯魏國金／綜合報導〕蘋果公司奠基人賈伯斯的妹妹、作家孟娜．辛普森在追思兄長的祭文中指出，賈伯斯生前最後的一句話是單音節的「喔，哇」（Oh Wow），而且連說3遍，宛如他帶給人們的驚嘆。
宛如他帶給人們的驚嘆
辛普森似乎認為，賈伯斯最後遺言與他相信來生有關，傳記作者艾薩克森也說，最後和賈伯斯談的是關於生死的話題，因此有人解讀，賈伯斯遺言或許可比擬為發明家愛迪生臨終的最後話語：「那裡很美」（It is very beautiful over there）。
有人解讀 可比擬愛迪生遺言
辛普森祭兄文最初於10月16日賈伯斯追思會發表，紐約時報27日刊出全文。該文分成賈伯斯一生、生病與臨終3部分，辛普森說她想描繪的是賈伯斯的特質︰他的虛心、認真及他對學習與家人之愛。
54 歲辛普森寫道︰「即使身為女性主義者，我傾注一生等候所愛的男子，而他或也愛我。數十年來我認為此人是我父親，當我25歲時，我遇見這個人，他就是我的哥 哥。我與賈伯斯相見時，他是那個年代穿著牛仔褲的傢伙，看起來像阿拉伯或猶太人，且比奧瑪雪瑞夫帥。」1984年兄妹相認後，辛普森透露正想買台電腦， 「賈伯斯告訴我等一等是好事，因為他正在創造一台極為美麗的電腦。」她提到，當賈伯斯被踢出一手創立的蘋果時，「他告訴我，有一個500名矽谷領袖與當時 總統共餐的晚宴，他竟未受邀。他很受傷，但他仍然工作…每一天都工作。」
談愛情時就像個小女孩
辛普森說，賈伯斯「談論愛情時就像個小女孩」，熱情又浪漫，愛是「他的最高美德，他的眾神之神」。賈伯斯與妻子勞倫相遇那天，他致電說，剛剛遇到一個美麗的女人，非常聰明且擁有一隻狗，並強調「我要娶她」。賈伯斯與勞倫於1991年結婚，「他對勞倫不變的愛支撐著他」。
辛普森指出，賈伯斯在生前最後幾個小時，家人隨侍在側，他的呼吸逐漸改變，不時傳出深沉聲音，他似乎在登山，「他的呼吸顯示旅程費力，山勢艱險陡峭」。賈伯斯最後一一凝視家人，說了「Oh Wow Oh Wow Oh Wow」，然後與世長辭。
