London, Feb 17 (IANS) Apple founder and CEO Steve Jobs has terminal pancreatic cancer and may live for just six more weeks, a media report said Thursday.

 

>_<

Sad news for him and his family if it's true, though I do wonder if this is the result of a life spent bathing in various electromagnetic fields :)

Those kind of devices Apple works on don't produce a EM field powerful enough to influence human physiology.

 

Probably got cancer from drinking too much free soda.

If only the RDF could save him. Oh pffbt, it's the Enquirer.

I bet he's regretting spending his entire life trying to sell people crap they don't need now. :)

Sad, but some part of me hopes this means the end of overpriced Apple products that don't do anything particularly well.

 

... it really is a shame, though. The man isn't exactly evil.

"Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"

Never liked Steve Jobs, always thought it was a douche... That said, I wouldn't wish this on anyone.

I don't care how great you are, and I don't care what you're worth. When it all ends up, you got to go back to mother earth.

Screw mother earth. I want to be shot into space.

Cancer is just more proof that 'mother earth', 'mother nature' and all other silyl things are evil to the core whose only job is to make living things suffer as much as possible after using and abusing them.

Volourn just trolled Mother Earth, awesome :lol:

Enquirer or not, pancreatic cancer is no laughing matter. If he's undergoing more treatment he could definitely have lost a lot of weight etc. Whether he only has weeks to live remains to be seen...but I hope he beats it. I may not love iEverything but he seems an interesting man and I'd hate to see the world lose him.

 

Then again, such is life.

 

But this WSJ blog mentions that Obama met with Steve Jobs (and others) yesterday, so Jobs can't be quite on death's door yet. Interestingly, it was held in Woodside...if I'd known that I could have gone there and watched the limos from some distance street corner and probably be arrested by Secret Service men for being suspiciously stalker-like. :lol:

BAH! Volo's just whining.

 

Nature > Volo.

 

Death is awesome. Deal with it!

The fact that you felt the need to compare nature to me is enough proof to show how pathetic nature is and how awesome I am.

 

I mean seriously.. you just were so deserpate to defend your precious nature to me. Nature... that 'entity' that exists for every to something (me) that will live 100 years top if I'm very lucky. L0L

 

Thanks for the compliment, dude, thanks for the compliment. :thumbsup: I hope MN doesn't feel slighted by your words. :o

 

As for Jobs, don't know him, so don't feel anything other than 'it sucks' that nature has found yet another victim to torture.

"Victim to torture"

 

What a silly thing to say. If it wasn't for nature humanity as a civilization could never survive due to overpopulation.

I counter that with the fact that if it wans't for nature we wouldn't even have an 'overpopulation' problem iin the first place.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA

 

I can't believe no one else made that joke.

Nature > Volourn

I'm sure that's what your cells feel about you.
