Why are there apple maniacs like me?

I was sitting on an uncomfortable wooden stool in an Apple Store, holding my iPhone. My butt was hurting.

I had gone all the way up to the Upper West Side Apple Store to get my dented, scratched, stained three-year-old MacBook Pro—one of the unibodies where you can still swap the battery—fixed for like the 6th or 7th time. The logic board was dying, again. The optical drive was dead, again. I think the display was going bad too. And the trackpad was getting wonky. I had a few days left on Apple Care.

I wanted to see/meet you in person once in my life but I think that day would never come now. I was busy playing game today when news of your death was broken to me by my wife. For a moment I could not think about anything at all and I was in shock. New iPhone 4S launch yesterday already missed you.

Apple CEO Steve Jobs is back on the job after a six-month medical leave, the company said Monday. “Steve Jobs is back to work. He is at Apple a few days a week and working from home the other days,” Apple spokesman Steve Dowling said. “We’re glad to have him back.” Dowling would not comment further on specifics. Jobs’s return may do little to quell the tech community’s obsession with his health and future role at the hip tech company. Bloggers and tech-news writers are asking many questions aboutJobs’ return, including: Would Apple be fine without its famous chief executive? What does Jobs’ health mean for Apple stock? And why has Jobs’ health been such a drooled-over story? Jobs, a 54-year-old pancreatic cancer survivor, had a liver transplant about two months ago. Apple, maker of the iPhone, iPods and Mac computers, had remained mum onJobs’ status except to repeat, over and over, that Jobs would return to work by the end of June.
