Whether he comes back or not should be irrelevant. He is a human being with (obviously) severe health complications. Your comment shows your inability to separate "Apple" from "Steve Jobs" and see him as a person. Tell ya what -- next time you fall ill, we'll all just sit around making comments like, "She won't be back."

Anyone who takes this news lightly or makes snide comments about stock prices, Apple failing without him at the helm, or whether or not Steve will come back to the company loses many points in my book and, in my opinion, is a callous ass.

Those who turn this into an issue about stocks or Apple's future do not deserve to claim to have any feelings whatsoever, and obviously have never seen illness take over someone any closer than on television.

Asshole.
