Talk, Rumors, X Versus Y Steve Jobs' health has been an important topic of rumours ever since he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in mid-2004. He was treated successfully, and recovered from his ordeal. Ever since then, rumours of possible health problems popped up regularly, which were only ignited further by Apple's recent announcement to drop out of MacWorld San Fransisco, with Steve Jobs not delivering the famous keynote speech coming January. Gizomodo threw a whole lot of oil on the fire today by publishing information which they claim comes from a source which has always been 100% accurate.

At this point I'm not sure if I should laugh or cry.


Oh come on. He's not a religious icon for cryin out loud. If it's his time to go then it's his time to go. We all die in due time and Apple will no doubt continue. The world will keep spinning and the sun will keep shining. Get over it .. pansy.

whoops .. my bad .. thought I read all that .. apologies.

It's just kinda stupid how some people can think Apple won't survive without him, and it infuriates me. I've been reading the articles here for quite a long time and only now have I been pushed to actually register to respond to something, and I guess I kinda flew off the handle a bit. I'm blaming the caffeine on this one.

I don't know about that. A weeping figure appeared on the wall of my living room for a couple of hours this afternoon. It looked strikingly like Steve. It's gone now, though.

The world will keep spinning and the sun will keep shining.

Yes. The Sun will no doubt keep shining.
