Poor fellow might be fighting cancer again. He will always have a special place in history though. The computers we use to have this dialog are here in large part because of him.

Hope Steve Jobs doesn't suffer from pain, and is able to recover to some extent. My wife has been battling cancer for quite a few years now. I would not wish that on anyone. As my wife was receiving her all-day chemo treatment today (and using her iPad), I stepped out for lunch at a nearby Starbucks. Almost every individual customer was sitting with an Apple product; either a Macbook, iPhone, or iPad. Perhaps 12 customers sipping coffee and typing away on Apple products. Simply amazing, the impact Steve Jobs made on the world today!

Steve Jobs 2005 commencement speech at Stanford University provides insight into his philosophy and is one of the best commencement speeches I've heard.
