Een tijdje geleden rapporteerde Gizmodo dat de echte reden dat Apple niet naar MacWorld komt, is dat Steve Jobs er echt niet goed aan toe is:

According to a previously reliable source, Apple misrepresented the reasons behind Macworld and Jobs’ keynote cancellation. Allegedly, the real cause is his rapidly declining health. In fact, it may be even worse than we imagined:

Steves health is rapidly declining. Apple is choosing to remove the hype factor strategically vs letting the hype destroy apple when the inevitable news comes later this spring.

This strategic loss will be less of a bang with investors. This is why Macworld is a no-go anymore. No more Steve means no more hype. Saying they are no longer needing [Macworld] is the cover designed by the worldwide “loyalty” department.

This source has repeatedly been 100% correct before. Those times, however, were always related to news and images of unreleased Apple products.

Ik hoop zo hard dat het niet waar is. Apple doet, zoals altijd, de “no comment”-dans, maar ik hoop echt van ganser harte dat het niet waar is.
