Why Steve Jobs Won't Return to Apple

In summary - The author has a feeling that Steve Jobs isn't going to return to Apple because he's been successful.

History tells me that Steve Jobs' past successes inspire him even more. I believe, if he can physically return to Apple, he will.

Jobs' health issues aside, I think if he is able to he will definitely be back to Apple. Simple reason, he enjoys it too much. Perhaps it is true he has accomplished what he wanted to, but there is nothing in Jobs that makes me think he would be content to stop there.

And so begins the rash of articles and stories chasing eyeballs and pageviews and speculating about whether or not Steve will return to Apple...

If history is any sort of bellweather for this, he definitely will if he's at all able to. He loves Apple and he loves what he does.

There have been many moments these past few years where one could've said that Steve's "accomplished everything he ever wanted to accomplish."

Oh, please. What milarcky. People who are motivated by product do it for the kicks. This is love for Jobs, not money. If his health stays, he will be back. He doesn't know anything else.

He'll be back if he can. I find it hard to believe that entrepreneurs have fixed goals.

another "Steve Jobs is God" articles, yay!!! I wonder if he ever gets tired of hearing how much the world loves him, and how his poo must smell like flowers...

I'm skeptical about this guy's argument. It leaves out one critical fact: Jobs' personality. He lives for his work. When he was kicked out of Apple (in the '80s) it was the most miserable time of his life. He doesn't want to be a VC or a playboy. He wants to feel like he's part of something really big.
