It is true, Steve Jobs has stepped down from his CEO position to Chairman at Apple Inc. Its expected though that Apple will pull through. But I can't help think of all the Apple fan boys (and girls) crying over this news. Seve Jobs published the following letter himself.
I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple's CEO, I would be the first to let you know. Unfortunately, that day has come.
I hereby resign as CEO of Apple. I would like to serve, if the Board sees fit, as Chairman of the Board, director and Apple employee.
As far as my successor goes, I strongly recommend that we execute our succession plan and name Tim Cook as CEO of Apple.
I believe Apple's brightest and most innovative days are ahead of it. And I look forward to watching and contributing to its success in a new role.
I have made some of the best friends of my life at Apple, and I thank you all for the many years of being able to work alongside you.
Steve
What does this mean for the future of Apple? What will happen when Steve Jobs has gone completely? No one knows for sure. Steve Jobs wont completely be away from Apple as Chairman he will still make some decisions for Apple products. Tim Cook will be Steve Jobs' successor.
