I know this is off topic but its about time to let you fan boys known the truth....Apple is owned my Microsoft and Steve Jobs was fired at one point, so Bill Gates re-hired him to prove a point.There is a movie on how the computer age happen you should take a look at it.... LMAO
-
God's speed to you and a full recovery Mr. "ICEO". We still need you around for a long, long time.:)
-
I'm afraid if it's announced like that, it's probably serious. Been rumors for awhile now. Good time to think about shorting the stock.
-
I feel bad for him. He's sick and people allways are mad at him for creating a "blocked" phone. I personally have never said this I love the iPhone. And I would rather have a block phone the a android. Btw mr. Nightmare dude apple created the computer Microsoft just made the operating system.
-
Hey it's me Steve just like to say thanks for all the support but the only reason I left was because bill gates needs some help wiping his ass but he said I keep holding the paper wrong so give me till october and I'll probably be back.Sent from my iPwned.
-
Why doesn't he just boot up in DFU mode and restore himself to the latest version? Lol jk How you get well soon Mr. Jobs!!!
-
Yeah get well Jobs'y, much as i don't like your policies regarding Jailbreaking, wouldn't want you to to keel over, wishing you a speedy recovery.
-
Steve,My best wishes for your quick recovery.Apple needs you.World needs you.We need you.Get well soon.
-
agreed hope all is wellgod speed apple rulez hope he see this .......
-
Apple did not invent computers. I take it you are an Apple lemming oh and Apple is not God. If it wasn't for there iPod invention they would have gone out of business
-
Hope you get well Steve cheers
-
Are you talking about "Pirates of Silicon Valley"? Because I don't remember it was that way...
-
Steve is a hell of a cool dude, so get well jobs. Apple aint complete without u man.
-
Nor do I... also you know IBM said Bill Gates couldn't get a job with them because he wasn't qualified right?There are a lot of nice stories, but also a lot of false ones... So please don't believe them all, also mine is true, was one of funniest things I remember...
-
Apple did invent the GUI for computers ;) they were however one of first to bring a consumer computer out. I think only one company had before them by like 1-2 yrsAlso Konrad developed the first computer that could be programmed.... in 1936...Unless Steve changed his name... You get my point?He still is a great guy and achieved much more than Bill Gates seemed to. Unforunatly Gates did get the GUI more refined quicker (Not better, but easier for normal people) and got a bigger base because of it, thus actually jumping ahead in the game.
-
I think you will find that it was Amiga that brought out the first GUI in a popular consumer computer.
-
What will happen to Apple after the end of Steve Jobs's natural lifespan? Is there a successor?
-
NOne that i can think of
-
If I remember it was Lisa with the GUI in 1983. And it was 1976/7 with the Consumer Computer for Apple whilst in 1974/5 was Scelbi & Mark-8 Altair & IBM 5100 Computers.If I'm wrong let me know, but back it up. I can say my Grandparents invented the first ever computer, but that doesn't make it true nor does it give dates or specificity on the issue.From what I remember Amiga wasn't the first.
-
Oh and if I remember correctly, workbench(?) was released about a year or two after Lisa and its GUI.
-
Hopefully Mr. Jobs will feel better soon so that he can come back on Stage and present the next generation iphone/ipad/ipod touch/ipod lines.
-
Probably Tim will take over.
-
Nothing will happen, if steve expires sooner or later.. The world will just miss one Genius but there are already several now in the Apple world. He admitted in one interview that he was probably late to realize that what Bill Gates had? That Bill made a software company instead of hardware. But what I see from here now that after launching so many successful OS versions and then integrating iOS successfully in mobile devices (Which i think is the future of computing) as well as more developers coming to write for Mac platform. He has done his job to make Apple a successful hardware based software company which makes best software for his best hardware.Get well soon Steve, even though after all this hard work we need your input in Apple.

HE GOT AN HART ATTACK AFTER HE COUNTED HE'S MONEY .

get well soon!
