At least that's how the analysis goes...

I knew he was having issues with being sick for the last few months but this was news to me.

...and apparently he had a liver transplant.

They can't confirm or deny it but that's how the story goes.

Hell, we're gonna get to the point where we can't confirm if he's alive or not at the rate things are going.

Given his health issues, it's likely to happen soon.

Although, there are people that disagree with the story:

First, the WSJ offers no source for this information — not even an “according to sources close to the matter”. But yet they state it flatly as certain fact. That’s highly unusual. And whoever their source, they didn’t give the WSJ any publishable information regarding why Jobs needed a new liver — that part of the article is pure speculation. My guess is that the source is rock solid but gave the information only on the condition of complete unsourced anonymity. Curious no matter what, though.

Second, why Tennessee? Tennessee is a lovely state but, well, it doesn’t sound like Steve Jobs country. You don’t need to leave the Bay area to get world-class medical treatment.

I'd agree with this except the fact that California is sinking into the ocean by means of economy right now.

So he was admitted there.

And apparently was next to done when he had the transplant. Sounds like he was quite lucky.

I have a feeling his investors must have something to do with all this cover up.

Let’s hope [...] Apple recovers some semblance of transparency.

HEY CAN YOU SEE ME
Apple? Transparent? They've never been that.

Good to know Jobs is back at work. I hope he's taking it easy though: it can't be easy recovering from a liver transplant.
