My guess is that Jobs has laid out a blueprint for Apple's continued success extending at least a decade into the future. All systems tend toward entropy, of course, but 68 billion in cash reserves will sustain a lot of entropy.

Best of luck to Steve Jobs with whatever he plans to do now. Hope his health improves and lives long enough to see what becomes of Apple after him.
You can ignore the next paragraphs as it is purely Rant

However, I have observed that Apple has become more aggressive (in a wrong way in my opinion) after Jobs left the post due to his illness in January. Since then Apple has been suing other companies for all sorts of reasons. I used to admire Apple (due to Jobs) for changing the mobile computing arena completely. They dazzled the world with their product and one of the best marketing strategies but now they are in news for trying to stop other companies from launching competing products with false allegations. I hope it’s a passing phase and they start focusing again on developing better products and stop this madness.
