Apple CEO Steve Jobs discussed his operation following liver cancer for the first time since his nearly six month medical leave, reports Bloomberg. Shareholders were originally apprehensive as to the secrecy surrounding the severity of Jobs’ illness. “I now have the liver of a mid-20s person who died in a car crash and was generous enough to donate their organs,” Jobs said. “I hope we can all be that generous.” Jobs introduced a new lineup of iPod media players, adding features and cutting prices on some versions. He spoke for about half an hour and mingled with the crowd following the presentation. “I’m very happy to be here with you all,” Jobs said after a standing ovation. “I’m vertical. I am back at Apple and loving every minute of it.”
