That's probably true, but I think Tim probably knows logistically what "Apple" the company actually was better than Jobs did. A more important question is will his successor know enough about what Apple really is if the successor didn't know and spent a lot of time around Jobs, to get Jobs' wholesale approval. How long until we get a CEO that had never even met Jobs.This is because Steve was a geek who was truly excited by the products his company sold. I'm not saying modern Macs aren't good but Tim is not a geek. That's why he brings in product specialists to talk you through products that Steve did entirely on his own for the most part. You can almost hear Tim say "And here's Craig to talk you through our new MacOS (because frankly I haven't got a ----ing clue)"
But anyway, by making all these other Apple employees get the spotlight in keynotes and be able to explain the new products themselves, Apple is kind of making them very hireable to competing companies. It's getting their name and face out there anyway, which means Apple has to pay them more to keep them loyal to Apple. So it's nice to not have it all be about Steve Jobs all the time, it's nice to let Apple's department managers speak for themselves for a change too when they are actually the ones been spending years focusing on that one product or feature.
