Hoping this is a fake pic...
... because he looks like he's in really bad shape.

I wish him the very best, and if this photo is real I'm sad to see him this way.

And look at his legs compared to the other man's.
I hope his condition improves and he feels better soon.
Particularly since blue jeans and a black turtleneck are all he has worn since at least 2001 (when he donned khaki shorts once).
Not sure what Steve's doing in a dress instead of his blue jeans.

I wonder if he's at some type of recovery center and is receiving some help walking in between areas.
What's he wearing?
a Photoshop sarong.
It's not even a GOOD photoshop... must have been done on Windows!
The problem is that it isn't fake.

I'm not convinced... In fact, I'm pretty sure it IS fake.
Specifically, focus on his neck in the close-up... Sure looks like his head was grafted onto a different set of shoulders. Then of course there's the clothing...esp tthe lower half!
I could be wrong... It could be a really odd lighting anomally... Smears on the camera lens... But it's definitely hard to believe someone would 'shop a photo like that just to see if they can get a reaction on forums!

It's from TMZ.com. While they are a celebrity gossip site, I've never heard of them making anything up when it comes to photos.
If this pic is genuine (it's said to be taken today) then it reveals that his prognosis right now isn't very good. I sure hope he finds the right treatment and can recover soon.

It is really sad to see a human being especially one is a pioneer in the computer field looking like this.It hurts.With all his wealth what is the good of it without good health money is nothing.

It has had some manipulation. You can see on his left sleeve near the cuff, there's a hard horizontal line. Also near the bottom-right of the gown, there's a sharp vertical edge that isn't anti-aliased like the other vertical edges. The shadows on the feet also don't match the socks. I think the overall picture is real but the skirt legs and hands have been photoshopped on. The complexion might also have been adjusted.
It's very poor taste in the circumstances. Whoever is responsible for this photo should be ashamed of themselves.
We know that he is frail as evidenced by some authentic photos taken in February:

and the partly faked photo could easily have been taken back then because he didn't look all that bad when he was leaving Apple:
He may never recover to a better state but having less stress not being CEO will hopefully help.
