WoW! Today is my son's 15th birthday as well as Father's Day. I lost my husband to Colon Cancer with liver Mets 5 years ago! Gee Steve- want me to buy another Apple product so my son can enjoy Father's Day with you? GIVE ME A BREAK. When we mentioned transplant- we were laughed out of the room! Money talks while the rest of us walk. And ALL OF US DIE in the end! Keep buying those iPhones! Titan of business-yes- but also a scammer of transplant medicine! BOO HISS!

I feel so sorry for SJ. I know the guy. Yes, he's driven and more than a little crazy most of the time. He is also fiercely private and this prying into his personal and medical history has to be devastating to him. I do NOT care how he's has treated this illness. I only care and hope he will recover and live long enough to truly enjoy his wealth and his family which he had rather late in life. (His earlier marriage and spouse/children not withstanding.) I wish him well and wish equally that the press would leave the poor man alone and let him make his decisions regarding treatment and stop chasing him to Memphis and prying around a recently sold mansion in one of Mephis' finest areas which may or may not his, but the speculation is rampant that it is!

Jobs is a giant. He has driven a revolution that has all our lives better. I hope that all goes well for him. The parasitic journalists hassling him are beneath contempt.

I think people should support homegrown giants like apple.

There is always an attitude of David and goliath.

These companies employee ALOT of people and are economy makers or breakers(other than banks).

Apple come up with fantastic equipment such as the touch ,iphone,mac.

Governments are keen to control these giants as they feel threatened by their size.

WTF is up with the media and Apple. It seams that everyone is determined to make one of the last profitable American companies around fail. I'm reading stories about the SEC investigating SJ for possible lying to the board about his health. Seriously WTF!

Apple beats estimates every quarter, employs 10s of 1000s (mostly americans, and not Indians like MS) and is one of the very few American companies that makes products that people actually what to buy.

The Apple share price continue to plummet, the better they do. This is the direct result of the fear mongering by the media. Really, this has to stop! Why not back good companies, instead of trying to cut them off at the knees.

CNN/Fortune magazine has used Elsie Russell's painting without her permission. How does she get compensated for her work?

ex ped: In most cases, parody of a work is considered fair use.

Thanks for sticking up for Jobs Phil.

I guess Jobs is news and as long as Apple and Jobs keep a lid on his condition the media is forced to speculate and speculate they will.

LOL I love the comparison. Steve Jobs definitely gave us the tools of the gods, i.e. the Mac. That man is my hero. Give Him a break. Go worship Obama darn media mongers!
