Steve Jobs resigned from Apple today. Although the reason wasn't announced, the speculation is that his liver cancer has reemerged.

Steve Jobs started Apple with nothing but a good idea and a partner. Starting with nothing but this, he helped revolutionize the world.

Bill Gates started under similar circumstances. He also helped revolutionize the world.

Gates had the early corporate wins, but Jobs persisted in his consumer focus with the belief that style matters.

In the end they both won. But Jobs was became much more important to our consumer-oriented culture with the iPod, iPhone, and iPad than Gates and Microsoft could imagine.

Godspeed Steve Jobs -- one of the few true heroes of our time.

Lots of coverage on his resignation and wonderful accomplishments while at Apple on the morning news programs.

Apple should be considered a Chinese company. Everything they make is Chinese. I stay away from Apple.

I hope Steve Jobs recovers though.

The new CEO of Apple is an openly gay Alabama native, who is active in politics. This will make Freeper heads explode.

With the economy still in the dumper -- maybe permanently? -- and full-time jobs becoming as scarce as rain during a drought, huge percentages of Americans have had their (misplaced) faith in the American dream shaken, the upper-middle-class consumerist lifestyle is exposed as a mirage for anybody who plays by the rules. Capitalism and the America that embraced it as a way of life is now and forever more a failure. It does me good to know that the generation that voted in Reagan and his ideology will see their America die from that ideology before their very own eyes and knowing they had a hand in its destruction.

Amazingly, Apple stock hasn't tanked like many predicted yesterday.
