I'm not sure if this is good or bad news. It is usually bad when this happens, unfortunately.

    Apple Inc Sends media advisory, Jobs notes health issues more complex

    than thought, will take medical leave of absence until June

    - Tim Cook, COO, will take over until Jobs returns

    - Jobs' Memo: " I am sure all of you saw my letter last week sharing

    something very personal with the Apple community. Unfortunately, the

    curiosity over my personal health continues to be a distraction not

    only for me and my family, but everyone else at Apple as well. In

    addition, during the past week I have learned that my health-related

    issues are more complex than I originally thought. In order to take

    myself out of the limelight and focus on my health, and to allow

    everyone at Apple to focus on delivering extraordinary products, I

    have decided to take a medical leave of absence until the end of June.

    I have asked Tim Cook to be responsible for Apple''s day to day

    operations, and I know he and the rest of the executive management

    team will do a great job. As CEO, I plan to remain involved in major

    strategic decisions while I am out. Our board of directors fully

    supports this plan. "
