The internet is rife with rumours of Steve Jobs dying in 6 weeks. Here is a quote from the man himself at an earlier time on his illnesses and death....
"No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because death is very likely the single best invention of life. It’s life’s change agent; it clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now, the new is you. But someday, not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it’s quite true. Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice, heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become."
He remains a personal inspiration and as Venkat mentioned ystd, even if he is dying, he is going away in his prime, with the world watching. Wish it could end better for him.
