In the context of Jobs' unknown health, this video looks a bit like a
eulogy. A bit too soon. It would have had a totally different "taste"
if I had watched it last december.

Eulogies do not have to be spoken only after the death of a person.

Let's hope that eulogy is not yet complete.

I read today that his authorized biography, which is due out in November,
will cover his resignation as CEO. Maybe thats the reason he resigned when
he did, so there would be time to include it in that bio; if he had waited
any longer, there wouldn't be time to do it.

The timing of his resignation would not be made to please a book
publisher. It would have been made to minimise the impact on AAPL's
value and execute a transition plan. The book's publication date would
be adjusted afterwards.

Have you lived all your life in the U.S.?

Not yet.
