Such weight loss is perfectly normal for someone who has had the surgical procedures he has had. -- Send responses to the relevant news group rather than email to me.

You should at least try to learn a little about the surgical procedures he's had before drawing such silly conclusions. -- Send responses to the relevant news group rather than email to me.

If Jobs' time is coming to an end, he sure as hell achieved a lot in the last decade. A lot of interesting things happened in the world of technology because of Jobs and his visions. But hopefully his time isn't up anytime soon. Death is a shame no matter what the situation is. I'm sure I'm much younger than the rest of the users on c.s.m.s, and therefore represent the younger generation of mac users. (college sophomore). -- Jason
