Just heard on Attack of the show, Steve jobs resigned as Apple's CEO not even an hour ago. Kinda sad to see him leave, he came up with some awesome things. Thoughts?

EDIT: Oh, he's still Apple's chairman, whatever-the-hell that is. And the Chief Operating Officer, Tim Cook, is replacing him as CEO

Is tht because he's ill? I read tht somewhere ages ago.

I wonder what Apples stock looks like now? They prob kept him on as a chairman just so that investors wouldn't get scared.

He stated that he couldn't quite keep up with things so he appointed someone who though could. Could be related to the illness?

373.72 -2.46‎ (-0.65%‎) 25 Aug 16:00 ET
373.90‎ +0.18‎ (0.05%‎) After Hours

It might have been a good time to invest if you had had your eye on it while it was happening.

Confirmed.
I personally hope that Apple will finally make a turn and lower the prices on their products because even with all the presumed "high quality" materials they use to make their products, they're still overpriced ._.

And the specs are just mediocre ._.
I'd rather be building my own rig for 1/4 of their price.

I've never been a mac fan but I like Ipod Touches. I hope now the Jobs is gone perhaps some porn apps will no longer be restricted because he didn't want them to be there. Or maybe a little more customization. For fuck sakes I can't even download adobe flash player on my ipod without jail breaking it
