Steve Jobs Has Put on A Little Weight

steve-jobs-bowling-art

El Jobso was spotted outside of  1 Infinite Loop recently and it looks like he’s gained some of those pre-surgery curves back. Am I the only one who feels the strong compulsion to furiously roll large balls at the Apple CEO?

I’m glad to see he’s got his appetite back though. His waif-ish figure was starting to scare me there for a while.

Steve Jobs “Say Anything” T-Shirt

jobs-say-anything

John Cusack is perhaps best known for his role in the film “Say Anything.” More specifically, the iconic scene where Cusack holds up a blaring boombox over his head for his desired lover. What if director Cameron Crowe had taken a slightly geekier route to his destination?

This organic t-shirt illustrates what “Say Anything” might have looked like had Crowe been really into Apple rather than hellbent on making Cusack into every 80s chick’s wet dream. Steve Jobs, what a dreamboat.

If da Vinci Had Designed the Mac

If Leonardo da Vinci had taken a page out of Steve Jobs’s book and decided to design computer hardware for a living, his designs would have probably looked something like this.

We’ve already seen what the iPhone would have looked like through da Vinci’s eyes, and even his rendition of Super Mario Bros., but the iSteam Mac design reveals da Vinci’s vision of the original Mac 128. A shirt featuring this design will set you back $20, while a poster will cost you $15.You know I need me one of each.

Steve Jobs Mobile Spied in Parking Lot of One Infinite Loop

Over are the days of Apple CEO Steve Jobs being assisted by mysterious men in black suits and the occasional helping hand from Jonathan Ive. El Jobso is now taking his own car to work, which leads me to believe that is recovery from liver transplant surgery is moving along just fine.

At least now he has an excuse to park in the handicapped spots. Live long and prosper, Steve Jobs.

Steve Jobs Caught on Camera For First Time Since Surgery

steve-jobs-first-photo

This photo, taken with an iPhone interestingly enough, shows the first photographic proof that Steve Jobs is actually still alive and not chilling with Elvis and Tupac somewhere in the cloud.

The photo shows Jobs leaving Apple’s Cupertino, California headquarters, joined by design henchman Jonathan Ive. He’s looking pretty skinny, but not much worse off than he did at the Let’s Rock Apple Special Event back in September 2008. The photo has caused Apple to have a significant stock boost today.

Steve Jobs Returns To Apple Full Time

sjobs

Apple officially announced today that Steve Jobs has returned to Apple as its CEO. As you probably know, Jobs has been out of commission since January due to poor health. Most people speculated his cancer had returned but Jobs dismissed that as a mere rumor, stating that he had some kind of “hormonal imbalance.”

I’m glad Jobs is back. Now I won’t have to deal with certain sites looking like this.

Will You Get Over Steve Jobs Already?

stevejobsdrama

Look, I love Apple as much as the next guy does, but this is ridiculous. The press and bloggers are becoming rabid paparazzi as they demand to know every detail about Steve Jobs’ life. I mean look as this shit on Techmeme. Is this seriously the biggest news out there? That a hospital tried to keep the identity of one of its patients off the radar but couldn’t? Jesus Christ. I understand there’s a correlation between full disclosure, stockholders and Apple but this is absurd. Get over it already and let the man live his life.

Steve Jobs Back At Apple

steve_jobsapps

The entire tech world is a flutter with news that Steve Jobs has returned to Apple. As promised, Jobs said he would be back in June and rumor has it that he’s not back 100%, but rather, is helping interim CEO Tim Cook out and telecommuting through email according to a USA Today report. This is fantastic news not just for Apple fans, but for stockholders as well. It ensures their prized asset is still doing just fine and can continue to create products that are a smash hit. Because let’s face it, without Steve Jobs, Apple is only half the man it used to be.

Sound of Silence: Apple Announces Updates

091213-macmini_425

Steve Jobs is off on some island banging chicks and sipping margaritas. Meanwhile, COO Tim Cook announced lackluster updates for iMacs and Mac Minis today. The 24-inch iMac has new NVIDIA graphics, twice the memory and twice the storage and still only costs $1499. The Mac Mini also got an upgrade, scoring 5 USB ports, Firewire 800 and a variety of options. It’s also being called the world’s most energy efficient desktop.

Finally, there is your mom. Only kidding. Apple also upgraded the Time Capsule (remember that thing?) and the Airport Extreme Base Station. They both now offer “simultaneous 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz dual-band networking “for optimal performance, range and compatibility.” Apparently, you can also set up a second Intranet for family and friends to use sans password. Very neat idea. Hit the link for the official press release.

Apple Locks In Multi-Touch Patent

multitouch_patent26109

Palm and other smartphone manufacturers are super-fucked right now. “Why?” you ask? It’s quite simple, really. See, Steve Jobs and his crew at Apple designed and invented multi-touch gesturing on a device. Don’t believe me? Might want to check out United States Patent Number 7,479,949, which states:

Touch screen device, method, and graphical user interface for determining commands by applying heuristics.”

Yeah. Well. Shit. If I worked for Palm right now, I’d pretty much fucking quit. How you going to beat that shit? Huh? Resistance is futile. Take a bite of the Apple already, ’cause that iPhone sure is tasty.
