On the day Steve Jobs died, perhaps the best measure of the technology innovator's remarkable impact on the everyday lives of people could be seen at Apple (AAPL) stores....

At the Stockton Street store in San Francisco, many people were holding iPads or taking pictures of the scene with their iPhones as they crowded around the entrance on a jammed sidewalk. Software developer Steve Streza, 24, held up his iPad, which displayed a photo of the former Apple CEO.

"Steve Jobs has been a major impact on my life," Streza said. "Without him, my life would be on a completely different path."

A makeshift memorial had appeared in front of the store. It included several dozen candles, apples and Post-it notes attached to the window with messages such as: "Thank you genius."

2. Maybe his body can lie in state at each Apple store? Or go on a tour like those medieval saints.
