Yes, this is precisely what they were all doing there - shooting the new cover for "Appey Road."

Zoom out and there are two others walking with him; Al Gore and Eric Schmidt. They had to retake this shot twice because Jobs forgot to take his shoes off...
Hence the pose, gazing downward, stopping in his tracks, while waiting for a VW Beatle to approach.

Just leave the man be for crying out loud...
He should be seen as an image to what the company has given us all these past years. I really hate it when people criticize Steve Jobs's decision not to tell every detail about the decease he had etcetera.

Just my 2 cents..

I know a lot of vegetarians that eat fish. And why are you insulted ? Because your definition of vegetarian is "only eats things that grow on trees ? " Hmmm does that mean you don't eat the following since they don't grow on trees either :

VEGETABLES
peanuts
soy beans
rice.....


hahahaha priceless comment.

Looks fine to me tbh.

Is he thin? Yes. People do thin out in old age. But frail and weak? I wouldn't say so. How can you make that statement anyway, all you can see is a little bit of his hands and a blurry face, the rest is covered by a black turtleneck (black being a bad choice since it makes people look thinner). He looks thin and lanky next to Ive who is shorter and husky.

In fact you can see he has a bit of a pot belly if you look at the blown up picture on the right.

Isn't there some type of technology that could put the pounds back on? Perhaps go on that diet that Kirstie Alley went on from Jenny Craig? Come on, it shouldn't be that difficult if you are a billionaire and want to add a few pounds. It really surprises me. I wouldn't go to his doctor for a band-aid.

I can't believe it is news. He just left for daily work, all right? Why people are so serious about him? Sometimes you need to leave him alone. He has private life. Come on!

TMZ is a real "news" site for "personality sightings." Since this obviously is news and it is clearly a personality sighting. It is real. Good job TMZ and their contributor.

I have seen a variety of anorexic folk and they all wear long sleeve shirts and long pants, so that is not surprising for someone with a disease related to nutrition shortage. Yes he is wearing his "uniform".

Just bless your lucky stars he is not wearing his shorts, commando, and hanging out as some accounts have reported!

I leave you with that image. :D

That's the guy who spearheaded the iMac, iPod, iPhone, iCEO, and iBook? Yep. :) Get over it. Hi Peace . . . . . . .

Yeah--first thing that came to mind--probably didn't hurt that Hey Jude is now playing on my Sirius station (yes, different album, I know).
Actually, it wasn't on any album originally, it was just a 7 minute single (with the rippin' version of "Revolution" as the B-side). Though it eventually showed up on an eponymous compilation album as well as the "Blue" album and the second (e.g. good) Past Masters. :)

"Hey Jude" also just happened to have been recorded 41 years ago today. :cool:

wearing the same clothes all the time is a fairly common trait in people like him, it's an unnecessary mind-load to think about these things to the point that it's just not worth bothering.

Why does it matter when he has a job to do?

He is really a great great personality. A visionary. I wish him all the best.
Though I am not a fanboy or anything of the kind.

Yes totally, the guy in black walking behind the white visonary guy. We sure all now that that means.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_is_dead

That's a SJ lookalike they. Let's all hope that this is not prophetic and John Yves will not share the fate of John Lennon.

Besides: I wonder if it's like with the beatles, the one walking in front is the only guy who nows how to make good computers :D

He is merely looking down so as to not step on the cracks.

Ivie strides confidently along because he can't slip through.

If the iPhone had video, or at least better resolution, we would know more.

Carlos Casteneda was never photographed?

You have to get some fat calories in you. It is nature's way. Salmon is great and fresh sardines are often available and super good.

Ives is a thick muscle bear hottie, but he makes Jobs look gaunt and old. I always thought Steve was very cute, though, especially with his beard/glasses/shaved head. I'd have either one of them if I were so lucky. :)

Wow, that's some scoop you've got there. We knew about his disease, but the fact that he was once deceased sounds quite intriguing. How long has he been Undead Steve and where does he get all that human flesh for breakfast?
Is Jonny Ive morphing into the yang to Jobs's yin? Jobs is tall, wears black and thin, Ive is short, wears white and is erm, husky.
Yup, that's why the iPhone, the previous gen MacBooks and various iPod models were made in black and white, in honor of Mr. Black and Mr. White. I wonder who the secret Mr. Silver might be, though. Probably an alien.

Longest song title ever.
Not quite, it was only 48 words, 4 words shorter than "The Sad But True Story Of Ray Mingus, The Lumberjack Of Bulk Rock City, And His Never Slacking Stribe In Exploiting The So Far Undiscovered Areas Of The Intention To Bodily Intercourse From The Opposite Species Of His Kind, During Intake Of All The Mental Condition That Could Be Derived From Fermentation" by Rednex.

I stand corrected.

(That pic is ridiculous, btw. Ren Fair much?) ;)
