Apple Honors the Life of Muhammad Ali on its Homepage

Apple recently updated the homepage (http://www.apple.com/) of its website with a tribute to legendary boxer Muhammad Ali, who died on Friday at age 74. Ali was admitted to a hospital earlier in the week due to respiratory ailments (http://www.nbcnews.com/news/sports/cause-muhammad-ali-s-death-septic-shock-targets-sick-elderly-n585926), which were further complicated due to a lengthy battle with Parkinson's disease.

The tribute on Apple's website includes a quote that reads, "The man who has no imagination has no wings." Apple has been a long-time supporter and admirer of Ali, showcasing the boxer in one of its famous "Think Different (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4TrHCZdBbl4)" campaign videos back in 1997.
