He did an amazing job over a very long time under sometimes difficult circumstances.  I applaud his work.

Apple went from near oblivion to the most valuable company in the world under Job's watch.  And the valuation is based on real profit, with a P/E under 15.

It's an amazing business story.

It looks like Apple is taking an unexpected turn with Jobs out of the picture.

Such a shame to happen to a man that has been a visionary for the last 30 years...

They've taken it down. Caused quite a stir. Originally posted online by TMZ, so the authenticity is questionable.

I saw this error message in my Mac's error log:

8/30/11 9:35:11.171 PM com.apple.launchd.peruser.501: (com.apple.helpd[3710]) Job appears to have crashed: Abort trap: 6

No kidding.
