Grow up, kids....

Sad to see that so many people think that making juvenile comments about someone at Microsoft is the right way to honor Steve Jobs' return to work at Apple.

They must be really, really scared about Windows 7....

Aiden - I just dislike even looking at him - one of the most obnoxious acting individuals I have come across - and I've seen a number of them :eek:

My comment has no Windows or MS loathing in it - Ballmer is just so.....
 
Great News! Now hopefully there will be that new product launch that is supposed to happen when he gets back! :apple: FTW
 
Glad to see Ballmer getting Minesweeper open without any problems.

It opens fine, you just can't "win." :D

I rated this thread positive but I can't help but wonder (since Steve is so controlling) if the 13" MBP would've gotten such a nice upgrade if Steve had any say in it? It's just so interesting that an SD card slot FINALLY appeared on a Mac after Steve takes a break.

Ugh...I really hope that retarded SD slot just *goes away*. He can leave FireWire though...

For God's sake, why do we still even have integrated graphics in the year 2009? I have never, ever used my MBP's 9400M.

Por favor, 2GB QuadroFX por mi MacBook Pro, Señor Jobs... :)
 
Don't Call It A Comeback!

Wow, he's been through a lot.
Liver transplant is serious business.
Really a good sign that he is back on campus, no matter the capacity.

Now, about that tablet annoncement...

You are so right, we need to honor glorious leaders return. First, we will fast for 30 iDays to honor glorious leaders return, so we might grow closer to his reduced weight. Next, we will kill a virgin porcupine to honor glorious leaders return. Finally, we will dance naked around a burning pile of Windows ME disk to show glorious leader how he has single handedly smited the evil Microsoft.

Will that due to honor his return?
 
So the guy in charge -- who's health news can make stock rise and fall by a single rumour/annoucement -- who lied to you last Fall about having a "chemical imbalance" in "absorbing nutrients", taking a leave of absence in which he got a liver transplant and didn't tell anyone before it or after it for an entire two months (probably because someone had discovered it and was going to tell the world), is now back at work.

Wow, you people must either be true fanboys, stock owners or BOTH!

I'd like to see Bill Gates do that before he left and see what would happen over here. :rolleyes:
 
Hellz yes

Well they could unlock 802.11n for the 3GS. Kidding!!!

All good, but finding a porcupine which has not been pricked may indeed prove challenging.
 
Great but...

How can a company rely on their C.E.O?If Steve Jobs passes away....Apple stocks will crumble.Apple stocks goes up and down just from Steve Jobs health news. I mean sure he's a great C.E.O but a company just can't rely on their C.E.O.


:confused::confused::confused::confused:
 
So pleased to here the old Apple dog is doing well. :)

This, as qouted on the BBC news website made me laugh, sounds a bit O.T.T -

Reuters news agency quoted sources saying Mr Jobs "was seen leaving the main Apple building in Cupertino and getting into a black car alone that was driven off by men in black suits with ear-pieces."
 
-- who lied to you last Fall about having a "chemical imbalance" in "absorbing nutrients."....I'd like to see Bill Gates do that before he left and see what would happen over here.
Do you know, for a fact, that this was a lie? It was quite likely a complication which was associated with his health condition. Incidentally, had BG done the same before he abandoned ship, more than likely few people would have even cared, one way or the other.

What he said makes perfect sense — all this extreme fanboyism is very disturbing.
As if Jobs were some kind of surrogate parent to them.

There is a big difference between wishing someone well and the bizarre display of affection of some posters here.

Seriously. Some perspective is always helpful.
 
Deleted post quote.

He still has a point. While it’s great to care about other human beings, people here do act like they have lived with him for the past 10 years, when the only times we have seen him was at 2-hour keynotes.

Good to hear he’s back though, maybe Apple can innovate this year instead of giving us incremental updates :D
