Something to cheer you up

Responding to JLM's post below, here's the best summary post I've found so far about Steve Jobs, a collection of video highlights:

I haven't looked at all of them, but don't miss the fourth one, his 1983 conference presentation that ends with the "1984" ad for Macintosh.  As great as that ad was, it was even more powerful, and emotional, in the context of his presentation.  I'd love to see the rest of that program.


There's conjecture that the Jobs resignation was less about his health and more about locking in the services of Tim Cook as the successor CEO. I'd like to believe that.
