Apple Steve Jobs Takes Leave of Absence

Yeah, sad to see he's not doing very well. Hope he gets better soon, because what would the computer world be without a Steve Jobs or a Bill Gates?

Don't forget Woz and Ballmer (and everyone else who pioneered both companies), but yeah.. thoughts and prayers go out to Steve for a speedy recovery.

Well Gates is really not involved that much with Microsoft any more and they are still doing fine :)

I don't expect Jobs to be back when he says. I would have to think if it's really bad he will just leave and enjoy what time he has left and not be tied down to a company.

That's what I would do at least lol.

Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't Bill Gates still actively involved in Microsoft? He just isn't CEO anymore. Must be wierd to handover your top position to someone else.
