Some Apple Fans Concerned Over Thinner Steve Jobs
Earlier this week, Apple's Steve Jobs appeared at the company's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) to announce, among other things, the new, cheaper, and faster iPhone. But it wasn't the hardware or software announcements that had many people buzzing -- it was Jobs' appearance. Some fans raised concerns about his rather gaunt face and the way he didn't quite fill out his typical attire (bluejeans and black turtleneck) the way he has at previous years' conferences.
Jobs had a recent battle with pancreatic cancer, causing much of the worries, but according to Apple PR, there's no reason for concern; Steve was just recovering from a "common bug" that left him a few pounds lighter than before. So, fear not, Jobs fans, your predictably-dressed leader is in fine shape -- if desperately in need of a makeover. [Source: The Wall Street Journal]

He looks ill. Cancer is a wasting disease & if he has had a recurrance, Apple is doing a disservice to its investors if they are not introducing Job's successor.

The guy is a Fruititarian (I think) or just a real strict Vegan.
He needs a proper NY strip steak, cooked Medium Rare over charcoal and an ice cold Sam Adams beer. Maybe a Philly Cheese Steak from Ginos and a Miller Light.
And before all the Vegetarians and Vegans start flaming me, Child Services takes away children from parents who try to raise them Vegan/Vegetarian.
My wife is also a M.D. and is a Semi-Vegetarian and said that Children shouldn't be raised Vegan/Vegetarian because it poses significant health risks at young ages.
The best age to become Vegan/Vegetarian is at the earliest 19 or 20. (19 for women, 20 for men, but it can vary).
If it was up to me, well my motto is, "It's not dinner of it doesn't have parents!"

Oh, forgot to add that certain diets can make the effects of cancer worse. Also the Elderly should eat at least chicken and fish. Real Milk is also important for the elderly and young children.

LMAO!! Mike, you're making me hungry!!!

A cheesesteak from Geno's??? Do you WANT him to die???
Better go to D'Allesandro's for your cheesesteaks!

Mad Mike,
"It's not dinner if it doesn't have parents" is a scream!
I grew up on 2000 acres, where my motto was 'If it's faster than my fork, I gotta gun!"

sandyJun 12th 2008 3:22PM
I think he needs a good piece of cheesecake!!

"A recent bout with pancreatic cancer"? - pancreatic cancer is a pretty lethal disease. The five year survival rate is about 5%. Mr. Jobs looks ill to me.
Joe GJun 12th 2008 4:20PM
If he loses wait as fast as his stock is falling, no wonder he is wasting away
JeanneJun 12th 2008 4:44PM
If it was cancer of the pancreas, then it doesn't surprise me that he's as thin and ill looking as he is. As far as I know, that is an incurable form of cancer, sure, it can go into remission, but it always comes back. Bless his heart if he's fighting it. He's always worked extremely hard, and been quite successful in all he's set out to do. More power to him.

Pancreatic cancer........He should be living like he's dying, especially with his bread.
PaulJun 12th 2008 5:32PM
Pancreatic cancer is terminal. There is no cure just remission. How sad.
Tammy Pyle FujiJun 12th 2008 5:43PM
Yeap...I think he looks sick...used to be rather nice looking...for a geek...
Tammy Pyle FujiJun 12th 2008 5:42PM
Steve,
Come on here to my neck of the woods and I can put you on full feed!

MadMike: My mouth is watering! I'll take a side of rocket salad and a baked potato, with my NY strip steak, please..... The Philly Steak Sandwich doesn't need anything. I don't drink, so you can keep the Sam Adams and Miller!
I was a strick vegan and fruititarian for many years and keeping weight on was hard.
