Apparently their new CEO is Wayne Gretzky.


Also, someone should probably go check on tj.

I'm sure tj will make an appearance in this thread.

I'm not surprised by this, his health was probably a big factor in all of this.

Why would TJ care all that much? Obviously Apple is going to change CEOs often during its existence.

Say what you will, Jobs is a damn smart guy and genius marketer. Some of us techy people complain their stuff is over priced and this and that, but to the masses he knew exactly what he was doing.


Also, he gave one of the best speeches I've ever seen: https://youtu.be/UF8uR6Z6KLc

We did, but he said that he is "unfortunately" unable to continue as CEO.

I've never really had a problem with Steve Jobs himself. It's the Apple fanboys that annoy me.

Not sure what this means, but... Apple has lost $18 billion in market capitalization since Jobs news broke, about the same as Paraguay's GDP.

$1 a year. Jobs has famously never pulled a salary more than that; he's a billionaire due to his stock holdings of both Apple and Pixar.
