It was only a little over a month ago that Jobs
stepped down as CEO saying at the time, "I
have always said if there ever came a day
when I could no longer meet my duties and
expectations as Apple's CEO, I would be the
first to let you know. Unfortunately, that day
has come."
Jobs remained Chairman of the Board at the
company, as well as director and an Apple
employee. He recommended that company COO Tim Cook take his place as CEO.
Yesterday, Cook gave his first keynote
address as CEO, unveiling the new iPhone 4S.
Rest in peace, Steve.
