... it today, you are a genius. But tomorrow? You'll be the biggest loser. Why? Apple has the best team, the best distribution, the best supply chain, the best management in the business.

As much as he claims that he wants to remove the 'distraction' from Apple, by leaving things so unresolved, he guarantees it will remain as a cloud over Apple's Cupertino headquarters…Apple needs to prove it can thrive without Jobs. And Jobs, for the sake of his family and friends if not Apple's investors, must show he can thrive without Apple." ...

Now the SEC Wants to Know How Steve Jobs Is Feeling
Gawker: valleywag —
... It's not a formal inquiry, like the one Jobs and Apple faced a few years ago over improperly issued stock options. And the status of a CEO's health isn't ordinarily under the SEC's purview. But his absence at Macworld Expo, an annual event where he's presented Apple gadgets for more than a decade, raised fresh questions about whether Jobs, a survivor of pancreatic cancer, can do his work as CEO. After weeks of uproar, Jobs finally said he would take a six-month medical leave from Apple. ...

... Jobs, who is on a six-month medical leave, has said he expects to return to work after dealing with a medical problem he first characterized as a "hormonal imbalance," but later admitted was more complex.

The panic that ensued after he appeared gaunt and unwell at an Apple event last summer, his subsequent skipping of his Macworld keynote speech, his disclosure of new medical problems, and his decision last month to take a six-month medical leave have all done nothing to relieve people's worries about what the state ...
