The idea that Steve Jobs could have been saved by surgery is unproven and most likely erroneous according to Dr. John McDougall in his article and lecture posted over 1 year ago (November 2011). Unless this position has been discredited, 60 min. should not have rerun this episode.

Testing. Trying to post but I get an error message saying I can only use standard keys from an American keyboard. No I wasn't using diphthongs or even mandarin.

I'm using my iPad. How much more of an American keyboard can I be using?

Shame on 60 Minutes for misrepresenting an important fact in the evolution of Apple.

In the story, when discussing the creation of the Macintosh, it's alluded that Jobs came up with the concepts of the GUI and the mouse, when in fact, he stole those ideas from Xerox PARC.
