I don't think so....
You may feel that this is in poor taste. That is your opinion. It is likely shared by others.
As a cancer survivor myself I see nothing wrong in making light of it. I find that prefferable to all the 'doom and gloom' floating around. I will not speak for Steve but I would be greatly surprised if he didn't agree.
But my point, to be clear, is this: under no circumstances can you say what others find humourous or not. You cannot speak for me. It is you and others like you who are immature. Grow up. Just because you don't like it doesn't give you the right to condem or control others.
Your hollier than thou attitude clearly indicates that you are the immature one. Grow up and stop being so judgemental.

Your comment is totally uncalled for and not humorous no matter what anyone's sense of humor might be. Show some respect for Steve and his condition, along with everyone else in his position, many of whom are far, far worse off. There are good people out there with this condition who are going to die gruesome deaths and you try and make light of that? Show some respect and more importantly show some maturity.

I admire Steve Jobs a lot and kind of like him but I am really surprised how harsh you (and several other people) reacted to these kind of jokes. When I read them, I felt immediately that they are a bit delicate but I did not consider them as completely untasteful.
How many people use phrases like: 'And now your claiming that it cures also cancer?' Anybody who enjoys 'As the Appleturns', should have no problem with jokes in general where annotations are made to sometimes very unpleasant illnesses.
I guess that most Apple fans right now can associate this type of cancer with somebody they know, they have seen at least in videos, somebody they value a lot. That probably makes them more sensitive to jokes about this subject.
And this Black Sense of Humour might anyway be much more of a British thing.
EDIT:
I completely agree with nagromme's post. He expressed my opinion in very nice way.

Great. Tried to install it manually since it didn't finish upgrading, now it says I do not have iPhoto 4.0 or 4.1 installed in the Applications folder. But I DO! Now my iPhoto quits whenever I open it and only gives some generic message like "this program has unexpectedly quit". No kidding.
It's a good thing I never got too chummy-chummy with iPhoto.
.narco
very nicely put
Very nicely said... I'd just like to make it clear that those who are offended have every right to be. However that does not give them the right condem those of us who are NOT offended.
It is the vocal and cutting nature with which they voice their offense that is offensive, not the offense itself.

nice work apple..
Since Xcode 1.2 was so huge (an entire CD!), I downloaded it at work where we have a broadband connection. There is no way I'd pull that down over this 56K modem!
Now that Xcode 1.5 is out, I suppose I'll download it all over again (and the July 2004 documentation set)
Prediction
I'm a little curious why they would add an update option to the app. Why not just leave it in the OS software update as it worked for these last 2 updates.
I'm curious if Apple users are playing test for a windows version that will be out soon to support the 60GIG photo/video iPod that I also predict we will see. A windows would need to have its own updater built in since it can't use the OS software update. So they put it into the Mac version first. I have no source for this, just speculation.

So you're condemning me and calling me immature for condemning others and calling them immature. Well, perhaps I overreacted but at least I'm not a hypocrite.
Immature? Grow up? You don't know me at all - so now's who being judgemental? If your sense of humor includes making light of cancer, then so be it. If people find a devastating disease that destroys families humorous, and one that has taken tens of millions of lives, then fine - that's their right and I will not condemn them or be judgemental whatsoever.
I apologize for my original statement regarding senses of humor and will try and be more understanding of what people find funny. Manu Chao and nagromme have raised good points and I did indeed come across as too harsh in my post, and that was not my intention - chalk it up to being in a hurry and typing fast.
Now, back on topic....

That's a pretty safe bet. There are just a few flaws with this plan. Two different places to update the iPod? Put your photos on with one program and music on with a different one. I guess it makes sense, but iPhoto has nothing to with movies. It seems like movies should be handled through iMovie. But there is no way they're going to give out iMovie for PCs so they are possibily building the functionality that should be in iMovie into iPhoto to have it be the same on Windows and Mac.
But with this step, why doesn't apple just release OSX for Intel cause it looks like each piece of iLife is slowly going to goto Windows to try to sell more macs. I wonder how much longer this strategy is going to last. Maybe Apple is switching mentality. They're making more money than ever selling iPods. Maybe they'll sell OSX for intel to sell more iPods, screw focusing on macs.

What do you want? "Changed code in line 846 of sub-routine that caused minor hang errors on quitting the app"? They didn't explain anything because there was nothing to explain. If it didn't work, you already knew the problem. Now that problem is gone. If it worked all along, you probably don't give a flaming crap that the problem you didn't have was fixed. By not explaining, Apple saved many users a good deal of time by not making them read **** that they didn't need to know or care about. No conspiracy, the world is not out to get you. Sorry to bust your bubble there.
After reading here, and other places, I have come to the conclusion that 4.0.2 didn't break anything, they just forgot to put something in there.
mmmm...
Damn ! You said it first, yeah! MWSF 05 , PhotoPod
I see 4.0.3 a bit slower than 4.0.2 when changing from "organize" to "edit" modus but a lot faster to start up... quitting remains the same...

They should say what the problem is, and it should automatically update from 4.0.2 (someone earlier says it doesn't notify you an update's available).
I doubt most users go to Apple Discussions or MacRumors to find out if the update they just installed yesterday already needs to be updated again. And how many "regular" people run Software Update everyday?
Well lots if it's been set to automatically do it in the background (though by default doesn't it check once a week rather than once a day?) but mine still hasn't popped up to tell me there's an update

Xcode 1.5 is out??
Wow. Two updates of iPhoto and a update of Xcode. Cool. Downloading Xcode now. I don't use it much yet (still teaching myself), but of what I have learned thus far programming in Cocoa and Objective C is pretty easy compared to other languages. 
narco said:
does the iphoto app say it's 4.0.3? if not, download the updater from web or reset your software updates history and try installing it again the way you prefer.
if it is 4.0.3, download the updater from web, and if it doesn't work, trash the iphoto app, reinstall it and then update. your photo library and preferences should stay as they were.
Nermal said:Wow, 7.1 MB, they must've really screwed up 4.0.2 for the 4.0.3 updater to be that big!
My main beef with Software Update is that it doesn't support binary patching. If they update a 7.1MB file by one byte you download 7.1MB.
Since everybody in the Cupertino area has broadband at home the rest of the world does too, right?
Back in the day PatchMaker and InstallerVice made some wonderfully small patches on OS9. Sure the resource database was handy buy there's probably some way to do it with Mach-O that noone's utilized yet. Objective-C will be easier than C++ since it's linked dynamically.

I didn't think it was funny either, but one thing you'll learn is that there are enough people in the world that a few are bound to find any one thing funny. Have you ever seen Japanese TV? Holy cow, that's not funny but it has the nation in stitches. Some people didn't find Eddie Murphy's skits funny in the 80's about Mr. T's back door adventures with Jackie Gleason. Other people pissed themselves laughing.
Canadians seem to think putting men in dresses and acting out skits is funny. Whatever.
The only thing most of the world can agree on is it doesn't like when people say, "hey, don't say that, it's not funny. Be more Politically Correct."

Yah we can now move on to the next buggy update.
This is becoming a very disturbing trend from Apple. ClimbingTheLog said:
I have to agree with you... I don't own an apple yet, so I am forced to do weekly updates to win2k, and that pretty much forced me to get a cable modem. I hate paying $60 for a connection whose sole purpose is to keep my POS pc running.
gorkonapple said:Xcode 1.5 is out??
I've had a few problems using Xcode to write code. I have some C++ homework and thought Xcode would be perfect, I am used to working with Visual Studio and thought it was time for a change. I keep getting compiler errors when I try to use a void main(), I also cannot get the screen to pause by using system("PAUSE");. I'm using the C++ Tool since I thought that was most appropriate, now I'm questioning that. Like I said I have been using Visual Studio but would like to move to Xcode.

For the record, I'm not offended by those who ARE offended by those who are NOT offended.
