    Clover, this would make a good poll, as to what effect (if any) people think this will have on the company's stock and/or sales.

    Reuters reports this update -
    The 55-year-old Apple co-founder and pancreatic cancer survivor has been on medical leave for an undisclosed condition since January 17.

    Tim Cook has been elected CEO. As requested, Jobs has been elected Chairman of the Board and will remain with the company in that capacity.

      Won't let me change it to a poll but I am guessing the news is not going to be good because of the illness. My thoughts are with him and his family. Not a lot of "positive" coming in the news lately.

      We have this Call of Duty Scenario setup - with the storm - it will be like a real time Costa Rican adventure.
