Now we can have flying cars and a sound economy within six months. Version 2, with a pony bedazzler, is rumored to be in the works already.

(I kid; we are an Apple family, but I think this Cult of Jobs thing is a bit overdone.)

He probably just turned up to tell the staff what to rehash and over price next.

and I hope that the new liver is thinner, weighs less, and metabolises even faster than the old one.

well I am NEVER going to be an Apple fanboi, no way, not ever

but I do have to admit the man is a genius & clearly an inspiration to work for . . .

plus he has really stuck it to the parasites in the recording industry so for that he gets my respect :) TBH personally I think in the long run he will prove to have helped recording artists more than those industry parasites ever have!

as a human being (which he is, despite the god like status) he deserves all my best wishes for a return to full health and this he hereby gets - good to have you back Steve!

Of course, the new liver already looks more slick and cooler than the old one.

-dZ.

Did he choose the normal $800 liver, or the functionnally equivalent $2500 one with a luminescent fruit logo on it?

Ho joy, new icons. Obvious choice: my liver's preferred medicine.

very well said, I second that.

Black turtle neck + jeans, no surprises there then, was probably born wearing them

Get well soon

I wish the guy good health of course but what's this all about, everyone knows that Woz was the real technical brains of the outfit but we never hear much about him do we?

Seriously are people that obsessed (including some reporters it would appear).

What's going to happen to Apple whenever he does go and meet the Great Biological Software Architect in the sky?

"Steve Jobs was spotted yesterday at Apple headquarters"

In other news, large masses of water located in Lake District area.

Woz was indeed the technical brains, but that was back in the day when home computers were scarce and one man could design a computer.

These days it's all about the ideas, once you have a good idea you can then get lots of little people to design and build it.

It's friggin 85 degrees out. Loose the turtleneck. You look like a koolaid drinking ... oh wait... scrap that ... never mind ... move along ... nothing to see.

Maybe he just popped in to pick up some share options?

Well its fairly clean from your post that you are a mac fanboi in the denail stage.

Other than that... Oh My GOD did you see that fab turtleneck. It was like SOO last spring.. Welcome to the El Reg fasion edition?

Who the fuck cares about what that tit wears?

Steve's liver was nearly as difficult to replace as an iPhone battery...

Mine's the one with a Nokia in the pocket.

For a (short) article, about the health of the CEO of a major manufacturing outfit (computers, software, media players etc...) why does it find itself living in the Mobile section of the site?

Is that all that apple have been reduced to? That phone company that used to make computers?

same as the old boss!

Could have been worse. If he worked for Nintendo, they'd have had to keep him open while they sent someone off to look for a tri-wing screwdriver.
