Bloomberg Publishes Steve Jobs Obituary

[sfhc21]

This was done on purpose...someone was out to manipulate the stock price. I think it worked.

As this story picks up more steam, down goes AAPL on a day that is largely positive for the market.

 

[dwman]

It is rather "mac"abre, isn't it?

 

[Prof.]

Even if Steve is dying, you have to admire his courage and strength.

Bastards! They've killed Stevie!

Steve must be rolling over with laughter in his non-grave.

I'm sure Steve doesn't find this funny at all, especially after all the rumors about his health recently. More fuel for the fire.

I think you mean Keith Richards, don't you?

Keith Richards isn't embalmed, he's cryogenically preserved.

Bill Gates might have said this, after reading the redaction:

"Darn, my best dream came and went..."

 

[Moonlight]

I think you mean Keith Richards, don't you?

There is a difference between embalmed and Pickled !

 

[SandynJosh]

"DANG!," is what Bill Gates said when he heard it was all a mistake. He had already opened the expensive wine.

He can buy another bottle

No, he was mummified, not embalmed.

What besides Windows and Balmer does Steve find funny ? Is he known for his sense of humor ?

 

[Trajectory]

No, he was mummified, not embalmed.

LOL!! You're right: Mummified.

 

[IJ Reilly]

LOL!! You're right: Mummified.

As opposed to,

Embalmed!

Can you say insider trading? Paranoid maybe but with all these Hedge funds going under I can see someone getting a few thousand for releasing it. If it would have stayed out longer a good day drop in stock prices and short sales followed by the rapid gain when you hear its fake would have made a killing. Looks like that manager lost out with it getting pulled that fast.

No, he was mummified, not embalmed.

After careful examination of the evidence, I now believe Keith is actually smoked, like a salmon. Dick Clark is frozen; Kirk Douglas was bronzed; Hugh Hefner can't die (but will get stiff); and Andy Rooney IS dead, but hasn't figured it out.

SJ will not die, but his mind will evolve into an operating system that will not be compatible with his current carbon based hardware platform after MacWorld 2012.

Er.... Im not sure anybody will be too happy about his/her obituary being released on the net and media while s/he's till alive! lol!

But this is no lolling joke! Its not like the "publish" button is a large big button which you can press by mistake! This is some kind of a prank!!!

 

[happydude]

open Z, open Z. damn, i released that. ah crap.

 

[happydude]

It is rather "mac"abre, isn't it?

buh dum, tssssssssss *sigh*

 

[daze]

Indeed - to quote Mr. Clemens, "The reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated."

I like that.

Hmmmm... a Belkin Dock? The Error was bound to occur!

Erm, that's actually awesome. How often does someone get to read their own obit?

That's exactly what I thought. I'd love to read my own obituary, especially if I was a high-profile figure.

Then again, I'm studying medicine because you rarely get a chance to (legally) cut up dead bodies, so maybe you want to disagree with me.

And in related news, the Dead are going to tour for Obama.
