Steve Jobs Dead?

In an apparent gaffe, Bloomberg published obituary of Steve Job.
The slip up happened when Bloomberg updated Steve Jobs obit and inadvertently published the article on their news wire. Though news agencies are known to keep a pre-obit ready for famous personalities but have rarely goofed up on releasing them before time.
The four-page Bloomberg obituary -- now retracted-- contained blank spaces for Jobs's age and cause of death to be inserted and interestingly also included praise for Jobs from his rival Microsoft boss Bill Gates.
