August 24, 201114 yr Steve Jobs steps down as CEO of Apple http://www.engadget....s-ceo-of-apple/ **BRENT** I know what I'm doing at 9 am tomorrow, selling my Apple stock! Joking aside, condolences to his friends and family. I have seen a lot of pancreatic CA rotating and working in Ireland where the people ehem enjoy their drink a little and it is one of the worst prognostic wise.
August 25, 201114 yr Maybe a 'too soon,' but among the Twitterverse comments comes this gem from HAL9000: Steve Jobs is taking time off to train for his fight with Jesus.
August 25, 201114 yr I suspect he's dying. Probably only has 2-3 months to live. The chairman position is most likely a PR move. They've also moved up his autobiography release... so take that for what you will.
August 26, 201114 yr ^ Nice! That's what I play with every time I stop at an Apple Store (along with an iPad) and drool over. The last time I was at an Apple Store, I let my toddler play with a display iPad - employees didn't look too amused as Libby slapped at the screen with her hands/fingers.
August 26, 201114 yr A few good links to stories about Jobs are linked from DaringFireball too. Edited August 26, 201114 yr by Currawong

Yup, my thinkpad display died so it was a good excuse to get the new macbook air.
August 26, 201114 yr Command-R seems to have worked. I don't know what these people do to computers, but all they have to do is glance at them and they stop working. I need to go home.
August 26, 201114 yr Bought a 13 inch macbook air today. Man is this thing fast. any recommendations on (not so expensive) bags for this thing? My current noname laptop bag just committed suicide.
August 26, 201114 yr http://www.amazon.com/Wenger-Slim-Case-for-Lenovo/dp/B003BR9F5U/ref=sr_1_23?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1314398203&sr=1-23 thats what ive been using for the past 3 years. not as much of a fashion statement as perhaps what dan suggested. but for the price and the mostly all black exterior i havent felt the need to look further. 14/15" version comfortably carries my thinkpad, ipad, reasonably thick notebook, thinkpad 90w charger, ti89 (big ass) calculator and a bottle of water.
August 27, 201114 yr you actually don't want a giant bag with a macbook air, too much space makes it bounce around
August 27, 201114 yr this is what i used for my 13" MBP + iPad: http://www.amazon.com/STM-Small-Alley-Screens-Carbon/dp/B00009MF83/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1314409593&sr=8-3 fits my MBP well. its not snug at all though so it might be a bit wide for the air, but i think it would be fine.
August 27, 201114 yr I use the 13" Ristretto from Bihn which fits my 11" MBA and iPad. I went with the 13" because I was afraid anything smaller would be too small.
