I can imagine Mr. Jobs, your plight for being in the spotlight for reasons unimportant.

The overly analyzed severity of his health, criticisms surrounding business activities, personal life, being written off by an NYTimes journalist for declaring the end of books, etc etc- there’s not been an aspect that’s untouched. But the worst was yet to come for him when bloomberg “accidentally” published his obituary.
Whoever did that, (NOT) sorry to break it to you- HE’S ALIVE and kicking!

Jobs, however, didn’t say much when he read his own obituary; except he laughed it off while launching his new Mac book in a recent product release conference.

Words said against him have come and gone but nothing seems to have broken Mr. Jobs’ determination and passion. Sadly, it’s us the readers and the loyal customers of the world’s coolest brand, who get affected by them.

As a loyal customer I never miss out on the videos posted on apple.com after the release of a new gadget. Seeing those videos is a delight, especially when Jobs conventionally walks out of the door thats on the right side of the stage with the new invention in his pocket- not to forget his trade mark black polo and blue Jeans.

Surprisingly, his zeal is never tired or low in intensity every time a new product has to be introduced for the first time. One would think its mundane for apple be coming out with a new product every other week; but for Steve Job’s, its NOT just another release. He maintains the fanaticism he has for his company and his team, and that is clearly readable in his body language
But looks like the world is bored with his fall and rise stories, and is desperately seeking “the end”. How else would you explain the enthusiasm surrounding his much anticipated death?
Agreed there’s nothing much to talk about a company which new products everyday, but that doesn’t mean the spotlight should necessarily be on issues irrelevant.
In short much more to write or talk about him or his company thats beyond the morose health issues.

A few month’s back I read a couple of articles that called him “arrogant’ and “nonsensical” because he stated some statistics regarding drastic decline in number of people who read books. Whic was turned into a bashing piece by an NYTimes journalist. These articles were appalling to read over certain levels. But most of all it was also disappointing to see the media focus on his mindless quotes which are inconsequential and harmless, instead of crediting his work.
It’s sad his company has to go through so much of drama, especially when their inventions are more spotlight worthy then the pioneer.

For once I’d love to see people see through the iStuff and leave him alone. Simply because the man has better problems to heed to as opposed to the much irrelevant comments given by those who obviously don’t understand the iRevolution or its importance in this generation.
Is this act a testimony for the fact that journalists tend to read between the lines to spice up their stories?

The details of his personal life, medical issues or pancreatic cancers are important- but not an everyday headline material; especially when he’s repeatedly confirming that they’re all trivial.
Hopefully, the media will find a different angle to his personality that is much beyond his health matters and spare us with the death drama.
In short- Leave him alone.
