teve Jobs, the co-founder of Apple, has resigned as CEO from the techonology company. He says, "I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple’s CEO, I would be the first to let you know. Unfortunately, that day has come. I hereby resign as CEO of Apple. I would like to serve, if the Board sees fit, as Chairman of the Board, director and Apple employee." His letter to the board is below.
Jobs has been fighting pancreatic cancer since 2004 and announced a medical leave of absence in January. However, he had appeared at the iPad 2 launch in March and the iCloud launch in June.
To the Apple Board of Directors and the Apple Community:
I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple’s CEO, I would be the first to let you know. Unfortunately, that day has come.
I hereby resign as CEO of Apple. I would like to serve, if the Board sees fit, as Chairman of the Board, director and Apple employee.
As far as my successor goes, I strongly recommend that we execute our succession plan and name Tim Cook as CEO of Apple.
I believe Apple’s brightest and most innovative days are ahead of it. And I look forward to watching and contributing to its success in a new role.
I have made some of the best friends of my life at Apple, and I thank you all for the many years of being able to work alongside you.

Finally cancer does something good.
I wonder if my Mac is going to implode from me saying that over and over?

And to think some people think my posts are imbecile in nature. You just surpassed anything I've said so far between this one and the other post about Job's cancer. :nope:

And look, you're friend Loco Gringo hasn't come in and neg repped you along with a nasty comment to your post. :shocked: I guess he's just shows bias towards my posts.
