Word is the man is pretty sick, cancer and going through chemo. Hopefully he is concentrating on getting better. Also, the rumor he has been elected Chairman of the Board may be true, but may be just a terminal honor as he goes out.

Should be interesting to see what the stock value does. Everytime he misses a meeting the stock plummets.

Sad. I want to say it's bigger than just one guy, but this one guy did single handedly save the company from obscurity a couple of decades ago. I'm sure he'll still be around in some kind of advisory role as much as he can.

This. That is one deadly beast. Killed my mother in less than a year and she was the strongest and healthiest person I've ever met in my life.

Poor guy. :(
