Jobs' Apple

I wonder how much of a company Apple is without Steve Jobs. Recall the troublesome years that it went through between 1985 to 1997. And how it was re-invigorated with his return and the first iMac.

Now that he has taken 6 months medical leave, and looking increasingly gaunt by the passing months, I fear for the company that always gave us something to look forward to in an industry dominated by suits and geeks who don't necessarily understand what the common man wants from a computer. In essence, he was the driving force behind all that Apple has come to symbolize.

We wish you well, Steve.
