A Sculley apologist / defender even , lol - Now that's a first !!!

Sculley's short sighted greed destroyed apple , just like timmy's doing now with his narrow minded focus on selling watchbands and iPhones and sod everything else , that was my point..

I'm not going to criticise Steve as he's not around to defend himself. All I do know is considering Next was supposedly such a pile of crap it seems to have morphed pretty well into os-x/MacOS and iOS...
 
No matter how you see Jobs and Cook, no matter the number of failures under Jobs, he did deliver new and innovative products. We are still awaiting any new and innovative product(s) from Cook.

So many people ignore or don't understand this irrespective of the plethora of companies that have done the same. Few recover.

I think this video kind of says it all. I know it was intended as a comedy sketch, but there is a lot of truth here.

Lol what? Only in Steve Jobs' semi-paranoid mind is anything you claim true. And that just isn't the world we live in. The Macintosh from 1985 to 1993 was amazing. All Scully, no Jobs. Because Jobs had been effectively fired in 1985.

You're really claiming, actually thinking that the Macintosh era between 1984 and 1985 was something uber-amazing. WTF are you smoking?
