Is Fake Steve returning, real Steve ill?

Its possible that Steve Jobs may be stepping down - I hope I'm wrong but maybe thats why the journalist was told that September 9 is going to be a big deal http://cultofmac.com/apples-sept-9th-event-is-a-big-deal/2675 . Again - I hope I'm wrong but its possible if Steve Jobs is really that ill.

we all know steve has a very passionate and direct relationship with his products. then it will come to no surprise that steve's health is contigent on the health of his products. note: when mobileme was "ready" to launch and iphone 2.0 was unveiled, steve looked sicker than ever. the same way we were reassured that steve was just suffering from a small flu, mobile me and 2.0 were apparently also only slightly ill. we all came to realize that was not the case, and that it would take longer to fix all the new problems that were surfacing. while slowly things are being worked out, we are all downloading updates feverishly only to see the same problems still getting the best of our stuff. steve is simply reacting to a lot of bad programming. i'm sure he hasn't been sleeping too well. it's up to the engineers at apple to get everybody healthy again. step up to the plate guys, it's not just our business on the line here....

The success of the Fake Steve Jobs was based almost entirely on the enjoyment people had guessing who was actually writing the blog. Without that element it will tank.

It might have been worth noting that many commentators, including your source for this post, are throwing cold water on Lyons' comments about Jobs' health. Given Jobs contacted the NYT to clarify his health situation, there would be massive legal ramifications for Apple (as a publicly held company) if he deliberately lied as Lyons would have us believe.

Steve Jobs is not gonna let the Grim Reaper take him until he's damn well ready!

My best friend's sister's brother's boyfriend knows this kid who's dating this girl who's friend saw Steve Jobs pass out at 31 Flavors last night.

I guess it's pretty serious.

LOL elsewheres "arne said... If you compare his physical appearance to the average american, he does look very skinny. If you compare it to the physical appearance of europeans and the rest of the world population, he looks perfectly fine."

he really is amazing, look what he did for his company
