Growled Member Posted January 14, 2009 Member Share Posted January 14, 2009 I too wish Steve a fast recovery. Your health and your family has to always come first, I don't care who you are. The only thing I hate about this is how it will be played out in the media.

LTD Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I too wish Steve a fast recovery. Your health and your family has to always come first, I don't care who you are. The only thing I hate about this is how it will be played out in the media. True. But media be damned. Apple has a roadmap for success, and with Schiller and Ive on the team, they're still full-steam ahead. Jobs made a similar move in 2004.

MistaT40 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I dont see anything appealing about Apple products - sure I have an iPod only because I needed an 80gb player and the Zune wasn't available at that time. Steve Jobs did do much as a tech visionary and he has an uncanny ability to raise interest among Apple products and it is for this specific reason perhaps that Apple wont be the same, without him. If you are reading this, I think you can also see I do not like Apple products at all. This is because while I respect Jobs for what he has done for the industry, I do not respect him as a person. He forgot all those who helped him get to where he is, all those people who helped him make Apple. More he takes every opportunity to push Apple products even when the event or issue is bigger than him alone. He survivored cancer previously, he knows the pains and trials to survive it, he knows not everyone is fortunate enough to be able to afford the treatments to fight it, but I have not see him even donating a small portion of his wealth to help this cause. http://www.wired.com/gadgets/mac/commentar...c/2006/01/70072 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/722490-steve-jobs-steps-down-from-running-day-to-day-operations-at-apple/page/3/#findComment-590424692 Share on other sites More sharing options...
9UnknownMen Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Wish him well and a speedy recovery. Tim Cook is great and a fellow Auburn alumnus.

Richard Hammond Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 They didn't. They clearly did. 90% of the worlds computers run Windows, considering they both started with even stakes in the 70s i would say they lost out big time.

I would agree with this, too, but you know that people will find ways to justify everything.

Crazysah Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Get well soon Steve Jobs. I wonder if the stock will recover the 10% loss by the time Steve Jobs is back?

9UnknownMen Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Get well soon Steve Jobs. I wonder if the stock will recover the 10% loss by the time Steve Jobs is back? 2 quarters of recessionary trends will weigh in more by that time than whether or not Jobs has gained any weight. Besides since everyone except the die hards knew that Apple was flat out lying about serverity of Jobs' health....this news was already 'baked in' into the current stock price.

zhangm Supervisor Posted January 15, 2009 Supervisor Share Posted January 15, 2009 The loss of Jobs during these harsh times is understandable.

sundayx Veteran Posted January 15, 2009 Veteran Share Posted January 15, 2009 Hope they can keep their product line-up strong. There isn't anyone who thinks as differently as Jobs. The loss of Jobs during these harsh times is understandable.

LTD Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Whatever. Here's some more. Have fun. http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Steve_Jobs_die..._-_AIDS-related The image is completely fake, anyway. Does this make sense to you: Date of Birth: Born February 24, 1955. ?? Looks like someone forgot that "date of birth" already means "born." Anyway, we're going to see a lot of bull**** like this for a while so let's get used to it. And that image is from 4chan . . . all that needs to be said about that.

evo_spook Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 I've seen a lot of replys on the news stories on the front page and in forum pages in this section, and I can say I hope all the ones laughing and joking and bashing can respect themselves if they think it could be one of there own family members suffering, I hope they are only kids as a lot of people have a lot of god dam growing up to do.
