Accept that the man is disliked in this forum but that's a little distasteful.

Back to topic - he's still chairman of the board. So not gone yet.

Honestly, fanboyism on the side... I think Apple and the world has just lost one of the greatest salesmen alive. I would love to learn a thing or two from him...

People that have never had to deal with cancer one way or another tend to take more offense to cancer jokes than people who have dealt with cancer... it might be distasteful, but clever.

You don't need a salary when you have other income to compensate. It's a technicality. He was not working for free.

From Forbes 400, February:
#136 Steve Jobs, Apple founder/CEO, worth $5.5 billion

It's not like he found them moneys and decided to work for free. He built that value with his work time and exceptional skills as a religious leader.

Also, I take somewhat offence of joking with someone's illness while they're still fighting it. But as a public person, I guess 'is skin gotsa be thick. Still, this is not the perfect way for an Apple Loather to see Jobs retire.

...The perfect way would be to see him kicked out for abusing his control over the users.

Yeah that's a joke. He owns over 5,5 millions shares and had lots of options.

That ammount of salary just represents how much steve jobs=apple and also represents the funny as hell tax policy in the US.

Nobody talks about Tim Cook?

While Steve keeps fans around the world paying for Apple's products at premium prices willingly, Cook keeps production cost down. People describe they are in many ways opposites: a visionary vs. a pragmatic.
