Steve Jobs resigns as Apple CEO

Oh well. Been on the cards for a while
 
Its a shame, especially as it probably means his health is deteriorating further :(

I hope this doesn't have to much of a negative affect on them as a company (i was shoked that shares haven't dropped to much because they normally do when theres new to do with his health)

Hope he returns to better health

Apparently though Tim Cook has been more or less in charge for some time now. It's sad news, and seems to suggest that Steve Jobs has not beaten his cancer. :( Seems like the end of an era for Apple, but it's not totally out of the blue, I suppose. And I hope the company doesn't take too much of a morale hit. Because, even though Steve Jobs might not have been involved in the actual running, it's more his status as an industry legend that seemed to provide the spirit and power within Apple.
 
heard this on the radio this morning, it is a shame and i hope it helps mr jobs health.

cook has been in charge since jan hasnt he? i cant see anything significantly changing now jobs is going, it would be suicide to change any strategies etc.
 
Although Steve Jobs has quite as CEO he is still working for Apple as this extract from his resignation letter shows

"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."

This dispels the rumour that his resignation letter contained one word

i-Quite :)
