You're a moron. He's 53, never been fat and his appearance can be directly attributed to the surgical procedure done, replumbing his digestive tract, removing the cancer and his pescatarian diet.

I noticed how much thinner, gaunt really, Jobs looked when he introduced the Iphone 3G compared to the original Iphone intro last year. Also, he seemed to hand off a lot of the speaking duty to others, much more than usual. And a lot of others noticed it too. Also, do you know the nature of his surgery? He didn't have typical pancreatic carcinoma which is treated, if at all, with major surgery called a Whipple Procedure. His type of tumor, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, is often treated with much more conservative surgery, involving removal of the affected part of the pancreas but not bowel or stomach.

And calling people morons doesn't help you to convince anyone of your point.

Beeeeyoutiful graphic! ;’)

I thought Stevie had prostate cancer, or something like that, maybe five years ago?

Seems like a great way to tweak the market for a short-seller.

Unfortunately I had a stop loss in at $100.00 Oh well still 3 times what I paid for it. Now have to start all over again.

Not prostate, he had pancreatic cancer. It was surgically removed.

Keep in mind that the type of tumor he had, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, is not the type of cancer we usually think of when we hear pancreatic cancer. It is usually much less aggressive and the surgery is often (not always) much less extensive than that required for typical pancreatic cancer.

I can’t ping the Mac Ping list because I’m not at my computer right now. I’m responding on my iPhone. I should be able to do it within the hour.

It is possible to FReepmail yourself your ping list, which makes it available to you anywhere you FReep. 'Course that's no help if you can't cut and paste with your iPhone . . .

That's why he is still alive... he had the less virulent form.

I carry my ping lists on a Flash drive so that I can use it on any computer... but that still doesn't help me with posting to the ping list on my iPhone. Rumor has it that iPhone 2.2 will have cut and paste... I hope.

“Im sure he did not get the blue screen of death”

Very true, but holders of aapl sure were in a kernel panic.

[Revolting cat!]

Steve oughta announce that he’s adding a second button to the mouse, the stock will double overnight!

[jimtorr]

I’ve always wondered about those comments on Apple mouses (mice? meece?) having only one button. My last two iMacs came with a mouse that had 4 buttons.

Re: new Mac notebooks

It’s all over the rumor sites. One even says they will iPhone like touch display pad along with a regular screen.

mouses (mice? meece?)

I wonder what they'd do if they kept getting submissions based on those email forwards. Something like: "I was informed by someone very reliable that 5000 people were shot and dumped in the bayou around New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. They were probably prisoners, shot by the Prison Industrial Complex." - Submitted by C. McKinney

*sigh*

[jimtorr]

LOL!

I’m doubt that Edwin Meece ever knew how to use a desktop computer.

How badly does it date me, that I not only know the man’s full name, but recognize his picture? And you, that you would make the connection? On second thought, let’s not go there.
