Steve Jobs resigns as CEO of Apple

I just wanted to say i dont really care. but then i realized id be better off not posting at all but then thought well thats boring so i posted this.

All that money and it cant make him a well man its sad really. :( shame
 
It's such a shame that people can be so disgusting towards a guy, who, has done more than they'll ever do combined. If the Google bosses quit or the MS bosses quit there wouldn't be even a whiff of this type of negativity.

Apple may not have started touch screens or apps but they sure as hell showed the world how to do it on a grand and simple way. Just like the rest that follow, who had to follow, seeing the success Apple had with its iPhone/iOS.

People say they are overpriced, overprotected but they simply work, perhaps too simply for the geeks out there and their modding needs but selling 20m units a quarter tells a story all by itself.

People are writing that he is already dead, and perhaps he is close to that fate but so what, show some respect. Apple have pushed/dragged technology forward a lot faster than it would've been hadn't Apple constantly innovated, anyone who says they don't is clearly small-minded.

It isn't about fanboys yapping at each other, if you lower yourself to that (regardless of which 'team' you support, you're fanboys non the less). It's a about a guy thats achieved a lot in life and helped build the richest company in the world, yet his personal wealth is no where near that of other similar company CEO's / Founders. It's about respect and a thank you for your commitment and vision.

I know he maybe isn't ready to quit, but I'm sure that he'll be content with his life and happy of what he achieved...

Finally, again, even though I sound like he's already dead, I just hope he can enjoy whatever time he has left with his family and friends.

Peace.

I like this.

The man is dying which is why hes resigned. At least he can sit back and enjoy the rest of his days knowing what he has achieved.
 
I wish him well, but it's no news that he is stepping down. He temporarily did this year before last iirc and passed full control to Tim due to his health worsening. People seem to forget he has a serious form of cancer and just go into instant keyboard warrior mode without a clue.

The main design team forged under him still exists for all their products.
 
I have no sympathy for a man who used his power and money to get ahead of everyone else for a liver transplant. He shouldn't have even been eligible for one due to the severity of his condition. This could very well have cost the life of someone who actually deserved the transplant.

I hope the iPad was worth it, because every single one is drenched in blood.
 
As wrong as it sounds it'll actually be a "good" day when him and bill gates die.


not in any weird "lol fanboi" way but just iirc both have huge charitable donations in their wills beyond anything given before.

Yes, though considering Jobs attitude, he may have simply just willed it to Apple (as a reimbursement due to the fact they will lose money when he dies.)

Pixel, you are nothing but a ****. That is all.

I don't like the way Apple does some things but I can sympathise with Jobs and his family regarding his illness
