A great mind. He made the programming language that most others were built on and if you didn't know Unix is a lot more than the base for Linux but also the Mac and iOS systems, nearly all cell phones and small computers, served as an idea base for Windows and started the idea of Open Source to the masses.

Unfortunately, he won't get the internet flood Jobs got, but he was everybit as important, probably more. :(
