Default Steve Jobs had a liver transplant!

Apparently he was sicker then a lot of people thought but here's to hoping he is doing well.

Why? Has Apple been sinking lately?

The stocks take a dive when Steve's well being cant be accounted for. Investors are skittish that w/o steve the company will revert back to pre steve.

Apple will not be the same without him, at least I guess so. Just like Microsoft isn't the same without Bill Gates.

Actually, my Apple stock has been doing very well over the past few months.

Just saying... sure, Steve has some influence on the stock, but it's not as if Apple or it's stock survives off of him. When he leaves the company, the stock will go down - no doubts there. But it will rebound, and Apple will continue to be the great company it is today.

That said, I do hope Steve is doing well and finishes his recovery speedily.

I dont understand a liver transplant either way. I was always told the Liver is the only organ besides the skin that can regenerate itself 100%. Steve had pancreatic cancer before right?
