Apple CEO Steve Jobs is again sick and has taken 'medical leave' to deal with the problem. Coming so soon after his April 2009 liver transplant, the world is clearly concerned that Steve is in serious danger. This has already had a detrimental effect on the company with stocks immediately trading down in Europe.
A myriad articles have appeared since Apple’s CEO, Steve Jobs, announced the end of his iCEO-ship and the start of his spot in Apple’s iChair, and while some think Apple’s future is crunchily sweet, others think that an Apple without Jobs will one day leave Apple’s employees without jobs.
There is not much that can be said about Apple and Steve Jobs that has not already been said. Jobs is Apple; no, Apple, with its superlative developers, is much more than Jobs; Jobs is merely human and just a good salesman. The reality is, however, Apple and Jobs are inseparable because Apple is Steve Job's dream. And that's why it will not survive after he goes.

Ok, so we all know that Steve Jobs is on another planet half the time, with recent departures sneakily disguised as “medical leave”, from where he gets his world-beating iDeas, and now he’s not-so-secretly building a new campus in a UFO-esque donut shape – but we all really know it’s a life-size vessel to introduce us all to Jobs’ iPlanet!!
There may well be sobs for those who will likely end up missing out on being able to buy a nicely realistic figurine of Steve Jobs, given that Apple shut down sales of a similar doll last year and with no reason why Apple would suddenly be lenient over the use of Steve Jobs’ image.
