Steve Jobs Spotted on Apple Campus, Seems Fine

I hope he makes full recovery and he kinda owns the parking lot so he can park wherever he wants

All the best to him...and to all those who own stock. ;-)

Pics or it didn't happen?

Good to hear. I hope it's all true and that he's on his way to a full recovery.

This is hardly the case...

I disagree. His medical leave has shown investors and Wall Street that the company can thrive and survive without him.

Actually, this has not been shown.

All investors know is that Apple has a couple of other people who can do passable keynote speeches.

Investors know that development of new tech usually takes a year or more, and they also know that Steve has been behind the scenes even during his leave.

Apple hasn't produced anything of real note during the leave, nor anything without the hand of Jobs involved.

Apple's depth of leadership won't be clear until a couple of years after Steve retires.

APPL is up over 60% since Steve announced his sabbatical. That certainly says a lot about investor and Wall Street confidence.

Of course nothing of note has been produced, as you said, it takes a year or more to develop.

No one knows how much or little Jobs involvement was during these 6 months.

I lol'ed at this. Could imagine him releasing a HUGE product right at the end when everyone thinks it's over.

...or comes on stage officially handing over his resignation! Seeing the shock on the faces of millions of followers would be priceless!

Seriously though, he really needs to get away from all this worship. It's not helping his health... Talk about pressure to perform.

Why does he not have to have a license plate on the car?

6 month medical leave of absence from Apple

It took Apple 6 months to find a look-a-like and train him to be Steve. The real Steve is in a vegetative state on life support in a secure room deep under the cupertino campus.
