Bad Health Yields Excellent Result

He even managed to elegantly announced his health leave but too many media (Gizmodo, BBC, among others) have already written about him as if he would certainly be going in the next two or three days.

I don't mean to be impolite or disrespectful but the writings themselves had revealed how a bad health of the Apple emperor had almost been followed by a successful toy.

Could it be that Mr. Jobs' -- BBC just polite enough mentioning him with attribution "Mr" -- health is a kind of "marketing tactic" to draw more attention to him AND the product/s-to-be? If it were, what would be more phenomenal than iPhone 4 and iPad?

However, that question should be reconsidered when you hear Job's (:D) addressed Stanford students in 2005, after a temporary success in combating cancer:

"Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important thing I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life."

I won't go with market and gadgets analysis. I can clearly see that Mr. Job had indeed made big choices in his and millions of Apple users' life. May be death is really the greatest fuel for anyone to achieve something worth noted.***
