    Wow!



    We as a "civilized" people have a long way to go yet don't we? Just look at this, making fun of a friend's life threatening illness. Nice... so very inspiring. Thank you.

    Indeed, completely uncivilized. Why next we'll be nailing cats to trees and bashing them with our heads.



    He's making light of the obsessive comparisons of pictures of Jobs that keep being made. They've become a kind of nerd augury, somehow foretelling the doom of Apple, Inc. to anxious crowds of forum members. They are ripe for parody, all he did was make it even more ridiculous.

    Well I didn't post the photo because I thought it "foretold the doom of apple". I just thought it was interesting. It's practically impossible to have an online discussion about apple anymore, everyone is so entrenched one way or the other.

    What about new Minis?

    Fair point, but I still think this rather intense discussion has gotten theatrical enough that it's a good source of humor. I was only responding to iPeon's distaste.

    Steve is fine.

    Sure he has to watch the diet but don't we all.

    I think Steve looks great!

    Most of us are used to seeing overweight Americans all the time.

    Steve is about 5'10" and according to a standard height weight chart, a healthy weight for him would be 130-170 lbs,

    He is probably right around 140.



    Your welcome.

    PS - Ghandi probably would have lived well into his 80s if he wasn't shot.

    Bruce Lee could do one finger push ups and died at age 32 of a brain hemorrhage.

    Go figure.

    Stay classy!

    It can be insensitive, I agree. But at the same time, humour is one of our only ways of making sense of our seemingly random life and death of our existence... Humour, and/or Faith+Enlightenment... or All of the above.



    Steve will probably make a quick quip in a witty but abstract way about people's concerns about his health.

    Transcendance. Once a person's being becomes so different from the rest of humanity, they tend not to stay alive in our plane of reality. Some days I fear Steve is at this point, though hopefully he won't be too brilliant to have to leave us.

    Umm... certain height/weight charts show Serena Williams to be of "Medium Frame".









    I don' think that's a "Medium" frame for most people in teh world.

    If Steve does do the event I'm sure he'll slip in a joke about the obit.



    As for redesigned Macbooks, I think the next Macbook should be the Air. Just discontinue the current line and make the Air (with a price drop) the entry level.

    Steve should get Sarah Palin to do the Keynote and give a presentation on "Apple, the bridge to everywhere."

    Ding, ding, ding! Bonus points for Trevor! This is the first time I've seen the word "looser" used correctly on the Internet. Usually, this spelling is used to refer to the opposite of a winner.



    There is hope that the English language may survive after all.
