Steve Jobs on medical leave again



  Citroen DS3 DSport
Apple CEO Steve Jobs today sent the following email to all Apple employees:

Team,

At my request, the board of directors has granted me a medical leave of absence so I can focus on my health. I will continue as CEO and be involved in major strategic decisions for the company.

I have asked Tim Cook to be responsible for all of Apple's day to day operations. I have great confidence that Tim and the rest of the executive management team will do a terrific job executing the exciting plans we have in place for 2011.

I love Apple so much and hope to be back as soon as I can. In the meantime, my family and I would deeply appreciate respect for our privacy.

Steve

I hear Tom's flying over to see him personally.

More to the point i'm guessing he won't be doing the big unveilings?
 
There won't be anything big (iPad) until March/April anyway. Then the iPhone at WWDC.

He'll be back for those I expect.

I get all excited about Apple stuff these days thanks to the wh0res on here!

Possibly the secretiveness of it all helps.

apparently...


he had a liver transplant in 2009 - which apparently leads to a weak immune system - which has caused this new bout of ill health.


just passing on what i have read so dont shoot the messenger...!

He has pancreatic cancer. Had it for a few years now according to reports.

It's affecting his health again if reports are to be believed.
