    That's a shame.

    I'd hate to own Apple stock tomorrow.

    If you've had it for long, I doubt you'll lose any money overall, but it's sure to go down.

    Which just goes to show how ridiculous stocks are in general. The only reason the stock will go down is because people will be afraid the stock will go down.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    Most of my stock was purchase before the original iPhone, so I'm not complaining too much, but yeah you're right.

    You made mad money on your stock and you will again once this rolls over. WHen the new iPhone comes out , it will shoot right back up.

    Ron dislikes a film = go out and buy it.

    This is simply not good.................I hate to say it, but I hope the guy can live out the rest of his life happily. He brought a lot to the table, and in my mind is good at what he does as CEO.

    Wow. That is sad to hear that his health is so bad. Maybe some time away from Apple will give him the rest he needs to ensure a proper recovery.

    As for how I feel about Apple, and how Steve Jobs ran it, I will keep that to myself...

    Life goes on, but it is a shame it's health dictated and he can't leave on his own terms.
