Quote: Apple has confirmed that CEO Steve Jobs will step down from his CEO post while recuperating from a hormone imbalance. His absence will stretch until the end of June.

One more step closer to him stepping completely away from Apple. And, unfortunately, when he does... Apple is gonna sink like a big fat planet sized rock.

And that's a shame. Because Apple is NOT Steve Jobs.

I'm worried that his cancer is back. He keeps going on about this "hormone imbalance," but there are very few things that can cause a hormone imbalance, and cancer is one of them. And after all, he did suffer pancreatic cancer, not generally known for having a high survival rate. I wish him the best, and I certainly understand him being quiet if the cancer is back, given that he's pretty much the only thing keeping Apple afloat these days, but I think there's a lot more to this than we're being told.
